Level 6 · 10 mo agoThe figures on the kimchi trade deficit are correct. Importing Chinese kimchi at 50 cents a kilo crushed local producers. Most restaurants buy it to survive. It is just cold hard economics at work.

Level 4 · 10 mo agoCalling the shift to processed food a 'realized dream' is absolute horseshit. It is just corporate garbage replacing real culture, not a better life.
