Its an aquired taste. But its interesting to see older gents by themselves in Korean restaurants eating it. Most of these guys were like you stationed in Korea and got the bug.

Kimchee toxon ipodah!
I get it at the Teriyaki joints here in Seattle, most of them cary it as most owners are Hangul. Out of all the different kinds I know & like the ?Potato? Kimchee the best. Little hard white squares. The regular 'salad' lookin kimchee isnt my favorite, but if made just right is very good. Ahjimah? Kimchee E-sayoh? |

I live here in CA, and have like 20 Korean friends. They tricked me into eating like 15 pieces of kimchee at once!! HOLY COW!! My mouth was on fire for about 1 hour!! That stuff is HOT!!! Never touched the stuff after that. Plus, for me anyway, Korean food doesn't fill me up enough. I can eat sooooo much, but still be hungry.

Well, you can keep the cabbage version, but I dig the potato version and the cucumber version. Yummy stuff indeed. Now if I could only find someone around here who made good hot & spicy pork w/ veggies all would be right in the world.

I was stationed in Korea for 5 years and married to a Korean for 11 years. It took me about a year of smelling Kimchee before I could even taste it and like it. Once you gt past that point there is no looking back. One of my favorite meals/side dishes is cabbage or cucumber kimchee with rice. I am no longer married to a Korean so I have to find a good korean restaraunt to get my Kimchee "fix".

"An yay ah say oh, Adishee!" I was at 2nd Inf Div at Camp Casey and Divarty at Camp Stanley. Never aquired a taste for it myself but I had two old Koreans that worked for me in my motor pool. You could smell them coming a mile a way: a pungent combination of Soju and Kimchee! Panzer Out |

Kimchee is eaten by every Korean for almost every meal. Get close to one and you can smell, I mean tell. Lots of time in Korea, from the DMZ to Pusan, but I never aquired the taste. Soju, however, is another story. Eddie |

It is interesting to see as a radical Korean who doesn't eat Kimchee very much. I only like it with some other Korean soups...but anyway, it does smell if you eat it too much! |

I had a Korean buddy in college.
He took me to his home one day. His momma couldn't speak a word of english, BUT THAT WOMAN COULD COOK! Sangmon, my buddy, would tell me how much she liked cooking for that "Big Man" (6'4',240). Momma never could say my name "Bill".......I was always "Big Man". Kimchee.......WONDERFUL!!!!!! |

Kimchee I ju jo-aeo!
"I love Kimchee" Kimchee e-soy-o? "Is there Kimchee" Peg-O-pa! "I am hungry" Kimchee is my secret love. When I was stationed at Camp Stanley near Uijongbu I used to eat it almost every day. My roommates hated it cause I would sweat it out at night. It is damn good with a rice omlet. I have to get some now. Cool to see other guys that have chewed some of the same dirt. |

Kim chee and spam sandwich

I'm like Homer Simpson when he sees beer and doughnuts when it comes to Kim chee....mmmmmmmm Kim chee....haaaaaawt.......Doh! |

I love to eat "Kim Chee" too! it's sold in just
about every big grocery store here in Ca. it comes in little jars, I like Japanese foods too, like the fried tofu balls stuffed with sweet sticky rice with a little Kikoman soy sauce and some green horse radish type stuff. |

Kim Chee reminds me of a type of "Sauerkraut"
or Korea's version of Sauerkraut? a pickled cabbage with extra spices. It's eaten as a side dish in a similiar way. |

Kimchee is a great mouthwash neutralizer. By the way, the best thing to stop the burning after eating spicy food is to drink milk.

Dear God in heaven, NO! I was stationed at Kunsan AB for a year, and one thing I absolutely could not stand was the smell of kimchee. I was on a bus filled with locals who had obviously been eating kimchee in the middle of summer once, and I can still remember hanging my head out of the window and praying for God to just strike me dead right there.
Now yakimandu is a whole different story. I love that stuff! |

LOL woof woof woof The first time I ate Kimchi was at a retaraunt near Fort Benning, made me sick as a dog. When I got the ROK I couldn't touch the stuff, but I love the cucumber, radish, and others.... Remember Chop chay ba? Used to get that in the KATUSA snack bar, right across the turtle ditch from my barracks at Camp Hovey. Second day I was there I asked for chajee ba, the little virgin behind the counter slapped me so hard I saw stars! Yaki mandu at Hovey Chicken after a night of soju and hopshee-da downrange....and the smell of the KATUSA's after a weekend in Seoul, they sweated sohu and kimchee so bad my eyes watered.....

I live in the Fort Campbell area so there are plenty of Korean food markets in the area. Twelve Dollars will buy you a huge one gallon jar. Bring it home and let the jar sit in the sink for a day or two. That gives it the nice sour flavor I love soooo much.
It's good too hear that I have some fellow 2nd Infantry Division on board, TURTLES no more!!!!! JAKE T. SNAKE |

Everytime we would fly into Korea I would have to load up on the Kim Chee. I've had some that was really good, and some that was just nasty.
Ripping loose a good hot Kim Chee fart in the flight station of a c-130 sends the officers diving for thier oxygen masks....Heh, heh, heh...good times... Love that yakimandu too. |

Good stuff Maynard.
I enjoy all (well most) of the farious pickled veggies lumped under the generic kimchi along with the big kahoona the cabbage kimchi. We have jars here in So. Cal. labeled with a safety warning. Product fermenting may explode when opened. My wife doesn't let me bring it in the house anymore. |

AHAAAAA HAAAAA!!!! Being Korean, I find this entire thread highly entertaining. By the way, the white radish kimchee is called:
KAGC. DOO. GEE: this is the cubed radish we call it Moo (Not mooo like a cow, say it quickly) If you want the whole radish its calleed MOO. UL. KIMCHEE I am personally partial to the BATCH. CHOO. kimchee or the cabbage kimchee. |
