Fermented... stay out of public:laughing::laughing:

Girl... your just in the wrong country
I spent a year and a half in South Korea, many years ago, and every family had an urn/pot of Kimchi constantly in progress.
They didn't/couldn't waste much when it comes to food, so a lot more items/parts than what is described in Americanized recipes of it were tossed in the pot. The lids were constantly blurping and the smell was not pleasant to us westerners there courtesy of your tax dollars, in your case your dad's tax dollars. You guys speak of Montezuma's revenge! You have a small clue
And Lou... dogs, cats, rats, and other small animals were common place hanging from a rope in an outdoor market.
When you ordered a beer from a local place you better make sure the bottle was brought to you and you removed the cap yourself.

Remember when they even tried to blame global warming on bovine flatulism? Didn't know it was truly caused by kimchi pots in S. Korea...

Supposed to have wind chills in the low 20's tonight, not going to be fun at work tonight.:shocked: When we had a night like this last year, I was freezing and 2 girls about 55 years old (much older than Sisters Brandi and FG19) came up and ask me "how can you stand to work outside in this?"

Thinking on the "fly", I said " cause I get to see pretty girls like y'all!" They blushed, giggled and 10 minutes later, they came back with 2 large Starbucks coffees and a phone number written on one cup:thumbsup: That told me it was cold enough to cloud their vision!!:rotfl:

I don't like fresh cabbage, or kimchi. :confused3:

Funny about the beer. In Texas, a few years ago, some bars still had recapping machines. So, many of us were warned, always buy your beer in a can, and watch them open the can.

Seems as if some bars would make last call, deliver the beer to patrons, then about the time they all had a swig, they turned on the lights and ran everyone out. They would take the bottles that were mostly full, and add to them from other opened bottles. Then they would recap it, put it in the fridge, and sell it again tomorrow night.

I've heard that isn't a problem anymore in bars, but it took me a while before I'd drink a beer in a long neck, if I was out. Now, I do most of my drinking at home, so that I don't have to drive afterwards! A keg, a can, or a longneck, it's all good!

Nothing better than Korean BBQ, Kimchi, Hite Draft Beer, followed by several rounds of Soju on Goeje Island S. Korea. Get to enjoy a couple times a month while negotiating Drillship contracts with Korean shipyards.

I never heard of such a thing, so I wonder if there's any truth to it.

I don't think there is any way I don't like cabbage: raw, slaw, cooked, with corned beef, sauerkraut, etc. As a kid, I was horribly allergic to cooked cabbage. Raw cabbage or sauerkrat were fine, but boiled cabbage kicked my butt. Until I was about 11 years old, I would break out in huge welts all over my body. Suddenly, at age 11, the allergy went away and I ate all the cooked cabbage I could. A large wedge lightly spritzed with basalmic vinegar is mighty tasty.:licking:

Grocery stores usually have fresh sauerkraut in the meat section. That has a mild taste and is lightly fermented compared to canned kraut.

I like slaw, and kraut with pork and mashed taters, on hotdogs, in a Reuben sandwich. :licking:

Sounds great to me. We have our version of a Reuben 1-2 times a week. Homemade Honey-Buttermilk bread, baked ham that we have rebaked with pineapple and whole cloves, to get rid of more of the grease and improve the flavor. Swiss cheese or a combination of Swiss and Hot Pepper Cheese, and Vlasic old fashioned kraut from a glass jar, which is not whangy like canned kraut.
Darn.. it's 2200. Too late for one tonight, but lunch tomorrow will probably be it, with homemade dill pickle spears.:licking:
