Kimchee rocks but you better not ship it. It blows up real good. We have a local Korean woman who sells the homemade stuff.

We have a local Korean woman who sells the homemade stuff.I'd pay good money for Kimchee. I only spent 3 weeks in Korea but found myself eating it for breakfast, lunch and dinner by the end of the first week.

I ordered kimchee in Montreal one time but the waiter could tell I was American and tried to talk me out of it. I had to reassure him that I knew what I was ordering.
Mmmmmmmmyum.
And I always think of that joke on M*A*S*H when Frank Burns thinks he saw Koreans burying a bomb, but when they dig it up they find kimchee.

Hot spicy things actually help you feel cooler as they promote perspiration. They also stimulate the appetite.
Think Pacific rim and Sichuan/Hunan Provinces. Hot climates - hot foods.

Me too! I make it myself. :o)
To: chookter
I remember fondly the family that used to accompany my battery to the field. They set up their tent and sold various foodstuffs, cigarettes and sodas. Every soldier augmented their mess rations with ramyun, made boiling hot with american cheese and red pepper on top, and kimchi.
We swore by the stuff for its laxative effect. It was the only thing that could counteract MRE's.

I have a friend stationed in Bosnia - I've been sending him coffee and Jim Beam regularly. Maybe I ought to throw in a few packs of this stuff in the next care package.

Jim Beam....my hubby would kill for a drink....he drinks a lot of coffee, even in the heat.
