Quite a few years ago I was making the ever so humble hot dogs and
sauerkraut. I added caraway seeds to the hot dogs and sauerkraut. The
caraway seeds took on a life of their own and started to move. I had to
throw the whole thing away. Now of course when I add caraway seeds to
something I check them first to make sure they haven't sprouted (I guess
that's what happened?)
