Surprised this thread about the lowly cabbage gets so much attention.
Another fun fact. When I was a kid when the carnival came to the little towns up north it was a real THING to get a carnival burger. You could smell them long before you got there. Just a basic grilled burger but loaded up with fried onions and they'd have this huge heap of them on the grill I think that's the smell that drew you in. Relish, mustard... heap o onions.. boom they were some good. It was usually the Elks club or the Lions or something like that ran the burger wagon and I found out years later the fried onions were actually half cabbage and half onion. Shhhhhhhh, its an old secret.. the old guy that told me said. lol

My wife made cabbage soup yesterday in the crock pot. Added carrots, onions, bell peppers and venison sausage. It’s delicious! Having it again tonight with Mexican cornbread. Corn tortillas?

If you add some cooked bacon/pork, venison, kolbasi, sauerkraut, and caraway seed you would have bigos, or the hunters stew. Big time in central Europe. It is/was made continuously on the stove, adding ingredients as the soup was eaten.
Anyway, toss some sauerkraut in a bowl, and I think you will like it. The sauerkraut really makes it. Caraway seed is the secret to making cabbage really pop.

My bride has been making a similar soup for nearly 44 years. She saw a recipe in one of her magazines called "Dolly Parton Soup" not too long after we married. The only difference between this soup and the beef (or chicken or turkey) veggie soup most of us have had for years, is the addition of the cabbage. We haven't made these soups without cabbage since then. We really like the cabbage added in . . . good stuff.
Someday I hope to be the person my dogs think I am . . .

Round two tonight and if a little taste an hour ago is accurate it seems better today (like most soups/stews are). A lot of you's seemed concerned yesterday about potentially explosive digestive issues sorry to disappoint but there were none. I know everyone likes a good fart joke, sorry  I agree with comments that all this is is a good heavy on the veg soup but with a lot of cabbage added. I've never added cabbage before glad I tried, it belongs

That's darn good looking cabbage soup!
Kinda like the Borsch I make, but not quite as much cabbage.
Will remember the cabbage next time I make soup!
