It sounds odd; I doubt if Judy or Alia will try it. I do not want the large jar of sauerkraut to spoil, so for today's lunch, I made this sandwich. I like it so much, I made another the next day!-Mike

A bite of history: Sauerkraut is not native to Eastern European and Germanic cuisines! Back-step to the 13th century with Genghis Khan's Mongols invaders into Europe who carried it in their saddlebags.
