Made in Canberra: 🥬 BK Kraut

BK Kraut produces healthy fermented vegetables right here in Canberra. Most fermented foods found in jars at the supermarket contain no beneficial live probiotic content. BK Kraut’s products are crafted without sugar or vinegar and are available refrigerated, so they still contain beneficial bacteria. They also work with local producers to reduce their environmental impact. You can find their products stocked in IGA Ainslie, Toms Superfruits (at the Belconnen fresh food markets), and at the weekend farmers markets. Find out more.
