toonpool.com is looking for the most funny, witty and beautiful ‘CURRYWURST CARTOON’! You can also draw an illustration! Beautiful implies: positive – for the keen fans of this dish! Berlin may also play a role (but doesn’t have to).

Reason for our contest is the foundation of the “GERMAN CURRYWURST MUSEUM” which will be opened on August 28th, 2009 – and the 60th anniversary of the day when the currywurst was invented on September 4th, 1949 in Berlin. The museum is located near famous Checkpoint Charlie with thousands of tourists visting this area every day.

The GERMAN CURRYWURST MUSEUM promises its visitors exciting scenes and a glimpse of history – combined with information about recipes, ingredients and origin. The stage is set for the most diverse aspects of the popular Currywurst, of which around 800 million portions are consumed in Germany every year. As an urban snack with a cult following, the “curried fried sausage” has many friends and fans who have a word to say about it in the exhibition’s photo and audio documents.

Starting this summer, the GERMAN CURRYWURST MUSEUM will welcome locals and visitors to Berlin under the address Schützenstrasse 70. The multi-media monument to Germany’s traditional snack creation is located in direct proximity to Checkpoint Charlie. The representative exhibition covers an area of 1.100 square metres including catering and shop.

Best entries of our contest will be presented in the museum (and maybe on t-shirts or postcards).

Alternative recipe from David Baldinger‘s kitchen in Greensburg/USA, a typical American way of food pleasure! Many thanks David!!!

David: I’ve never had currywurst. It looks disgusting enough that I would probably like it. My favorite is to cook sausage in sauerkraut. I brown the sausage heavily so the sauerkraut will pick up the flavor. I like to cook it until the sauerkraut starts turning brown. Generally, I prefer to use Gundelsheim Barrel Sauerkraut and beer bratwurst. I don’t add anything else. God, I love Gundelsheim pickles! I have to stop thinking about all of this! I am starting to go crazy!
