Is this possible?

[Miss Lydia]

I usually speak with a very light German accent - some people thought i am from Wisconsin or Minnesota - but if necessary (traffic stop) i can turn on the really heavy tourist accent: "I am sso ssorrie offiser, i mast samhau missed sat spid limit sein…" - comes in handy from time to time!

You sly one!

I don’t like sauerkraut either I’ve tried. Mostly German blood here to.

I don’t like sauerkraut either. This goes against Czech and German heritage .

I don’t like sauerkraut either I’ve tried. Mostly German blood here to.

Six years ago, me at the USCIS, in for an interview regarding my green-card application: »Sir you need to understand that i don't drink beer, i hate sauerkraut and am harassed in Germany because of that. I'm non an immigrant, i'm a refugee! «
Think i made that guy's day!

When did this thread turn into a conversation about Germans and Sauerkraut?

The best Sauerkraut I've had wasn't even called Sauerkraut. It's called choucroute garnie, what they have in previously-German-speaking Alsace, in a city called Colmar. Was delectable, would go back there given the chance.

Yes, Colmar is a beautiful city located in the bone of contention Alsace/Elsaß between France and Germany, now with having the EU that conflict has vanished. And yes, the french people eat fermented white kale too, they don't make it as acidic as the Germans do, but i still don't like it. The only Sauerkraut i enjoyed was on a fake apple-pie: Decades ago, a friend baked a pie for our Saturday computer-club meeting and had us guess. We all said "apple-pie", but it was a Sauerkraut pie. Surprise!
