在中文语境里，酸菜有亚硝酸盐是个普遍说法，但科学表明并不一定

我在这儿较真儿一下，我只是说日常生活中食用酸菜，我不跑马

不讨论酸菜在跑马中的应用。

Fermented sauerkraut is generally not high in nitrates. The natural fermentation process actually reduces the nitrate content of the raw cabbage by about 50% to 80%, as beneficial bacteria break them down during souring

1. Fermented vs. pickled: Fermented is better, but most of the pickled cucumbers stored in glass jars at room temperature in big supermarkets are all pickled, not fermented.

3. 结论就是 fermented unpasteurized is the best，我推荐Fermented, unpasteurized whole cabbage in the chill section. 例如我常吃的Skanderbeg Whole Vacuum-Packed Sour Cabbage (Kiseli Kupus)。 土耳其店经常有卖
