Sauerkraut Candy
As I started looking through recipes I came across this one written on a calendar page from 1958. I actually called grandma and asked why on earth there is a recipe titled "Sauerkraut Candy", and how could that possibly be good?????
She asked me to read the ingredients and low and behold it has NO Sauerkraut!
Just coconut. She said years ago the shredded coconut came in longer strands and probably looked like sauerkraut.
