NOTES: This is a recipe my mom used for years and we no longer have anything but a hand written copy of it. This recipe's main advantage is that it does not use any milk or mayonnaise so it is possible to store it for quite some time but it won't be me checking it out after 90 days...
Also, we made about one third of a batch with only one head of cabbage but it was still way too sweet for our tastes even after adjusting the amount of sugar so next time, we'll only use about a quarter of a cup...
