    Here's a low-carb ketchup recipe. http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/evenbetter_heinz_ketchup.html

    I'm only offering this because I can barely get enough of sauerkraut with a little ketchup added. A plate of that with some Hebrew National hot dogs and I'm floating in seventh heaven.

    So, kimchi is, for all intents and purposes, sauerkraut flavored differently? Different cultural take on fermented cabbage?

    Exactly. Sauerkraut is European. Kimchi is Korean and comes in many versions. Some will be so hot they will make a die hard chilihead gasp for air, but most are more mild. But always more flavorful than simple saurerkraut.

    My first kimchi was homemade by a roommate in college from Hawaii, her parents were from Korea and she had grown up making it. Still the best I have had.

    Here is some interesting info via wikipedia, with pictures.

    I love sauerkraut. I usually cook it with a pork roast in the crock pot.

    That's what I do with it or boneless pork ribs. I used to put potatoes in there but no longer....
