krout

Word famously used by most English speaking nations in world war two as slang for Germans, because 'krout' is German for Cabbage, hence 'sour krout'. And German's who weren't directing the evil, were behaving like Cabbages. This follows a European trend of naming Peoples by their food they are famous for eating.. For example Frogs - French, and Le Rost Bif (roast beef) - British.

i suppose it would take a bunch of cabbages (krouts) to put up with Hitler for so long
