1/2 c. chopped onion
1 tbsp. poppy seed
butter
1 tsp. salt
8 c. coarsely shredded cabbage, (1 head)

Fry bacon in a large electric skillet until crisp. Remove, drain, crumble and set aside. Add enough butter to make 1/2 cup. Add cabbage, onion, poppy seed, salt, caraway seed, 2 tablespoons vinegar and 2/3 of crumbled bacon. Mix and cook 10 minutes on medium heat. Add remaining vinegar and bacon and serve.
