Suspected toxic waste was discarded sauerkraut

Nine smelly barrels discovered on an allotment south of Stockholm, Sweden, last week were initially thought to be filled with toxic waste.
But officials say that the containers were in fact packed with sauerkraut, the pickled cabbage dish loved by Germans. The potent food was dumped in the dead of night at a car park next to community allotments in Skärholmen, around 15 kilometers south of Stockholm.
Local council officials in charge of clearing the area said that they had made the find last Thursday. They said that 8-900 kilograms of the pickled cabbage had been discovered, following initial speculation that the barrels were full of dangerous chemicals.
According to park maintenance staff, it remains a mystery who left the waste. Mammad Shahbazi, who has an allotment in the area, said: "It is not the first time. They usually come at night and leave. They think only of themselves and not those who have to clean up."
