Food Creates A Stink In One Neighborhood

[proud2BlibKansan]

DERBY, Kan. - An award-winning sauerkraut recipe is causing quite a stink in one neighborhood.

You see, a teenage chef and his mom have gotten complaints that the stench from their sauerkraut is just too much.

Theresa Klaus and her son, Caleb, are in the process of making 100 pounds of sauerkraut.

The owner of mobile home park where the family lives said she has received three complaints from neighbors about the sauerkraut smell. So she sent a letter telling the family to stop making

1. I've never lived next to a sauerkraut operation, but yeah, I would imagine the stench would be awful

And I like sauerkraut.

However I have lived close to a bakery, and the smell of fresh baked bread drove me nuts. Worse was living a couple of block away from the best BBQ joint around, and when the wind blew from that direction, oh man, it was torture.

3. Teaching has ruined my sense of smell for good food

If it smells good it is probably greasy burgers with fake meat. French fries are the worst. Yuck. But they smell wonderful while they are cooking.

4. Quaker Oats in Cedar Rapids Iowa

6. There is a horrible joke about Cedar Rapids, the Quaker Oats

plant and a certain Eastern European fellow and his date. I cannot post it here, for fear of dismemberment by some DUers, I'm afraid.

9. Sounds like the sugar beet processing plant here in Fargo.

If you get a north wind at the wrong time it reeks of "beet plant".

11. when Rockland was more of a fishing town

the saying was "Camden by the sea, Rockland by the smell"

For years there was a huge sign up on the sidewalk called the smell-o-meter lol. It was a long time ago, but if I remember the sign correctly, there was an arrow that would point to good, bad, or terrible (something to that effect)

5. Three whole complaints? Wow!

I'm guessing the trailer park is not anywhere near a paper mill, pig farm, or any other industry with entertaining organic gaseous emissions.

I hope Theresa and Caleb share some sauerkraut with the neighbors.

:hi:

8. Like Kimchi

the smell of Kimchi will linger on for sometime, even after a family has moved out of house/apt.

10. I got a jar of kimchi at the food bank once

It was YUMMY!
