Re: Bubbies saurkraut... any other brands???

[Guest guest]

So... I'm guessing most of the easy-to-come-by brands of saurkraut like Boar's

Head are no good? I've been looking every time and I only see generic brands and

brands I've never heard of which seem to have more junk in them than Boar's

Head. Today, I finally just got the Boar's Head. Hope I didn't do myself any

harm. I have cheated a lot the past couple weeks and am trying to remedy that

now, which is why I bought sauerkraut to hopefully help me out a little.

According to their reply (posted below) would this product be okay for candida

diet?

+++Hi Nate. If Boar's Head sauerkraut is " unpasteurized " and unheated it is

okay.
