They have a method of cooking fish from Peru, called ceviche, just using lemon juice to lower the ph that does all of the work. Incidentally, I believe sauerkraut needs a bit of lemon juice to maintain a ph that discourages botulinum from inhabiting the cabbage during fermentation. The ceviche method isn't a fermentation process - it can cook fish in the fridge in half a day.

I've made sauerkraut a few times, and you don't need it. You usually add ~1/2% of the cabbage weight in salt, press the cabbage wit the salt so that it release juice, and the juice becomes very acide due to lactofermantation.
