The town of Phelps, New York, was formerly a major center for the production of sauerkraut, earning it the distinction of "sauerkraut capital of the world." This annual festival, held the first full weekend of August, honors the pickled cabbage. Festivities include a parade, a cabbage head decorating contest, live music, and a hot dog with kraut eating contest.
