- Nomentatus 9y agoCareful - most of what you buy as "Kimchi", even from Korea, and most "sauerkraut"; is probiotic in no way whatsoever. That's because it isn't fermented as it should be, they've just poured in vinegar to make pickled vegetable matter. That won't help you at all.
- stenl 9y agoOn the other hand, making kinchi yourself is super-easy. it takes literally five minutes to set up and a few days to ferment, then just gets better over time (weeks/months).
- jpster 9y agoThanks for the heads-up. Would avoiding kimchi products that have vinegar listed as an ingredient be a good strategy? Or is some amount of vinegar also used in authentic kimchi?
- Nomentatus 9y agoGood comment - the practical way is to avoid anything with vinegar added (no need, the bacteria make plenty.)
