A spike in napa cabbage prices has South Koreans sweating over their national side dish, kimchi. Many Koreans eat the spicy fermented cabbage dish every day, and a weather-driven crop shortage has forced them to cut back or pay much more. The price of napa cabbage, a key ingredient in kimchi, has climbed fourfold. "Restaurants are charging for extra kimchi now. They're charging 2000 won for a refill. A meal generally costs 5000 won," said Joe McPherson, founding editor of ZenKimchi.com, which features the Korean Food Journal. Koreans have taken to jokingly calling the side dish "geum-chi," substituting in the Korean word for gold. CNN World has the FULL STORY |

Forumla1 key turns down repayment 'bribe'
Formulation A person supremo Bernie Ecclestone informs a new courtroom inside Munich that he paid out occasion lender to stop the sometimes highly-priced duty probe.
This is a deliberate ploy by Big Kimchi (or, possibly, in cahoots with Big Cabbage) to fleece the average kimchi consumer.
I demand a Congressional inquiry to get to the bottom of this outrage that has been perpetrated by those greedy, criminal kimchi producers!

kimchi crisis, ridiculous
I think my internets are broken.
jillmarie – please try to keep this discussion focused.
Prices for Kimchi will go up – no doubt about that it is our destiny. I am in touch with an advanced race of reptilian humanoids from alpha centauri – they have shared some secrets of earth's future with me and this is CONFIRMED TRUTH! This is all leading up to something....something big that will happen when the earth's poles shift in 2012.....Atlantis is going to rise from the sea again and most of us will be underwater unless you know where/when to be. You must take me seriously. This knowledge has been hurting me greatly and teh reptilians are very angry that I am sharing this information in the internet, in books and in steganographic images hidden in various places on the internet (for unveiling later). Please protect this knowledge.
Isn't she great folks...Let's give her a big hand!
Um, ok....???
Anyway, I love,love,love kimchi and am always excited when sushi restaurants have it. I get it as a healthy appetizer. I hope prices for it here aren't that high!
I hate this for you Caleb.
Meth.
not even once.
