I'm guessing they'll be at multiple outlets of Garden Fresh, but the one I shop at is in Buffalo Grove.
Garden Fresh Market
770 S Buffalo Grove Rd
Buffalo Grove, IL 60089

Wow, I did not know there still a Garden Fresh. I do not leave my area much <grin.>
But I do miss certain items since the Highland Park store closed. Chief among them was the sauerkraut in a barrel.
Going to take a road trip. Thanks Cathy!

Depending on where you are, you might find that the Vernon Hills Garden Fresh is also accessible. Don't know if they have the pickled cherry tomatoes, but the Vernon Hills store is even bigger than the BG store.

SO I bake it, then when it is near to done, but not quite, but the top is brown and crispy, I put another baking dish over it, and invert it. So for the last 10 mins or so the bottom is on top and gets a little drier. This is not usually long enough to make the top (now the bottom) soggy, though it is messy if you are not careful.

We have extra packets if anyone is interested.

Just because you can does not mean you should.

Trust me, I know. Mr. X was ready to just pitch them.
Cynthia wrote:At Woodman's today, couldn't resist the Sauer Frau squeezable sauerkraut. This fermented sauerkraut is chopped fine, so it can just be piped over whatever you want to enhance. Three flavors were on offer: classic, Bavarian with caraway seeds, and the one I got, craft beer mustard. I got it for the novelty, but it's really good. As the package notes, they're "Serious About Kraut." It's fun, in addition to being yummy.

I am guessing this was with the sauerkraut?

The text on the package is worth reading, too. "The Sauer Frau has no time for the eccentric or offbeat—doesn't enjoy theater, novels, art, or other human beings. But mention sauerkraut and she starts talking about the old country."
Here's their website -- so you'll recognize the package when you're wandering through the store: https://sauerfrau.com/
