slimy sauerkraut: to eat or not to eat?

hello folks, I have just tasted my last batch of sauerkraut and the juice has gone slimy. The taste seems good, as usually, but the texture of the juice is pretty viscous. I suspect I used a little less salt thjan I usually do.
Please give me advice, should I throw it all away ? Should I give it a chance?
