Nazis served kohlrabi to American POWs
First Lady Michelle Obama is growing German turnips in the White House garden, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.
Mrs. Obama offered students visiting the White House this week a “healthy meal,” which her anti-obesity group Let’s Move claimed was “harvested from the Kitchen Garden [Wednesday] morning.”

My Dad, a good German, grew kohlrabies. We learned to eat them raw, fresh from the garden.
My Mom added them to the pot that contained the boiled pork hocks.
Life was good, the food was better.

Moochelle can eat all the turnips she wants to. I don’t care for them. Give me Kohlrabi any time

My guess is that Moosechelle spews a lot of gas after eating those things.

” They are the people who eat Kale, Arugula, Turnips, Beets “
oh how awful that must be.

I like kohlrabi, but regular turnips kind of get me right in the back of my throat...makes it start to close up and I have a hard time swallowing.
Lots of sour cream is the only way I’ve managed to overcome this problem. Maybe hot sauce is a better route.

Whenever my teenage son is lying he starts scratching his head over and over.
Maybe she has the same habit.

Probably depends on which of those sauces sits better with you. Turnips do have a slightly bitter quality about them....the sour cream takes care of that, I imagine.
Maybe the hot sauce numbs my taste buds...

Sorry, but Spaetzle is not served with Wienerschitzel (Vienna schnitzel) which btw is made from Veal. Schnitzel is served either with German Potato salad, french fries or home fries
Spaetzle on the other hand are served with pork or beef roast

My father liked Limburger cheese, we kids didn’t. The only way I tolerated it was when my mother cooked potatoes and served Limburger cheese that she mixed with diced onions.

My mother used to make Kartoffel Kloese from scratch and they were delicious. Much better than the Pfanni (Panni) Knoedel

And why are German turnips better than the turnips I get in my local grocery (and that mom used to feed us all winter long)?

Well since the article specifically said that they ate KOHLRABI which in German means turnip (from the article)....
