::Interesting -- I've never seen the "water" kimchi. Whenever I go out it's always the fiery version.  Interestingly enough, my former Samoan girlfriend (from American Samoa, where they eat *very* bland, McDonalds-type food) loved kimchi (the spicy variety) and said that Samoans ate a lot of it.  And I guess they do in Hawaii also.

:::Well that's interesting, Mr. Peirce. I thought Kimchi spread only as far as Japan, China, & Vietnam, maybe. You will probably enjoy mulkimchi, which are very difficult to find. To me, eating mulkimchi would be close to drinking oriental tea, etc., although they're completely different. ([[User:Chunbum Park|Chunbum Park]] 04:10, 22 February 2009 (UTC))

that's what I say about kimchi, although I do try it every time I go to a Korean restaurant.... And my opinion never changes.... Hayford Peirce 03:39, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

:) That's quite understandable because even for me Kimchi doesn't taste great all the time. You might like the "mul kimchi" or "water" kimchi that I was telling Mr. Berkowitz about (I think maybe he already knew about them) because it has a very muted taste.
