A lot of people have eaten an icky can of sauerkraut, and then think they despise it. There's lots of kinds, some with fennel seed, many homemade recipes. It's good for you, easily made, and probably will be a mainstay of prepper cuisine post-collapse since cabbage can be grown in early Spring and Autumn.

If you don't like it, try others. Try red cabbage made that way and sweetened with honey.
