    What did K-11 do to you? You two seem to be at each others throats for a while now?

    That's a puzzler. Where did you get that idea?

    I do believe I screwed up and was thinking about two other posters. Apology to the 4 of you! 😉

    Every family potluck growing up my grandma brought her baked beans, people loved them. Granny confessed later it was easy, 2 large cans of Van Camps, mix in a cup of ketchup and 1/2 cup brown sugar, put a free strips of bacon on top. She'd bring it cold, and the hostess baked it when we got there.

    Krautburgers also called bierocks. Pastries filled with cabbage, ground beef, onion, seasonings
    It's largely local from German/Russian immigrants who settled here in the late 1800s.
    Some use sauerkraut, but no one locally TG

    Bierocks sounds like they might be related to pierogies, linguistically at least.

    My Mom's side is from Slovakia or thereabouts, so when I was a kid we sometimes had sauerkraut with sausage, apples, and onions, and maybe a sprinkle of carroway seeds.

    When I was younger I was a big fan of cold sauerkraut with salt, but my tastes have changed, and I don't even use as much hot sauce as I used to.

    On a side note re: Mayo vs Miracle Whip -- generally I prefer Miracle Whip because it's lighter and more vinegary (whereas standard American mayo reminds me of oil paint).

    However, a few months ago I bought some Japanese mayo (Kewpie brand) which includes the yolks, and now I like that as well as Mayonesa, which also includes the yolks.

    Time will tell whether the cholesterol conspiracy was true or false.

    I have occurred, it seems. Generally I don't know how to field such existential questions in a polite way.
