Don’t underestimate the value of fermented veggies.

True story... Did a 2 week deployment to Korea and I took to the place like a duck to water. Great people, great food.

Deployment commander ORDERED me to lay off the kimchee 3 days before our flight back.

Love the stuff. Great for keeping the system clean.

Well, lets hope that ObamaCare saves money by prescribing it for everything.

My wife’s half Korean, so I’ve been eating Kim Chee for nigh on 25 years. As for wrinkles; I’m 57, but I don’t look a day over 60.

I love kimchi. I eat it whenever I find it. And... I should add that I will be 58 on Friday and I do not have any wrinkles and my hair is brown but not dyed. I have no proof that kimchi is the reason, just stating facts.

On a subway in Seoul you can smell it coming out of everyone’s pores.

Love it! I have a huge jar in the fridge from the local oriental market. Learned it from Osan, Pusan and Kunsan.

I think there must be some sort of heritable aversion to certain fermented foods. I'm pretty adventurous and open-minded about trying new foods, but kimchee just snaps my head back and provokes nausea from even the slightest whiff of it. Surely it doesn't smell like that to people who manage to get it into their mouths, lol. That's why I think it might have a genetic component.

My (adorable) wife is from Seoul.

I eat kinchi daily.

Home-made, and multiple varieties, too!

I say this in all truthfulness. While stationed in Korea many moons ago one could be at one end of a hooch and a person who had been out on the town and eating authentic Korean kimchee could come in the door at the other end and the odor would reach the first person immediately. It could be that pungent.

The Med Mafia goons don’t want to hear a word about real disease prevention.

They’ll outlaw all real food and make deadly drugs madatory if they can.
