Stop trying to sew division in the fermented food community. They are all great and needed for a healthy gut microbiome. Shit I even drink kefir and people look at me weird.
Also, if you don’t like sauerkraut, then you are probably eating bad quality. I like the Clevand Brothers brand. The roasted garlic sauerkraut is sooo good.
Yeap, Korean people generally enjoy sauerkraut. Not all types of kimchi has a ton of spices in it. In fact, kimchi predates hot peppers being available in Asia. I’ve had some traditional versions that are mainly ginger, garlic, and some szeschuan peppercorn.
Yep, there are plenty of forms of kimchi with very different ingredients. They’re all just taking advantage of lactobacillus fermentation, same as sauerkraut, so you get the same kind of tang as it ‘ripens’.

I almost cited that brand as the one I think US Americans are trying and thinking they don’t like sauerkraut 😅
😂 Maybe there are better brands I don’t know about, but the kind I tried at restaurants and 7/11 are just awful.
7/11!? 😱 Lol, I bet! Bubbie’s is my go-to, but it’s hella expensive
Yeah store bought sauerkraut is usually shit, self made one is the shit though!
People look at you weird for drinking kefir? But it’s fucking delicious.
