1. [+971, -39] Well I gained 30 kg because of kimchi

2. [+447, -10] The irony of kimchi is that when the kimchi's really good, you crave more white rice and lose control

3. [+188, -9] This is making me crave samgyupsal for dinner and frying some kimchi in the leftover pork oil

4. [+23, -0] Mm.. well, how does that explain the obesity that still exists in our country when we eat kimchi everyday.. ㅡ.ㅡ;;

5. [+16, -0] Just seeing fresh kimchi makes me crave rice. I need a minimum of three bowls.

6. [+25, -10] My kimchi and ramen cravings have done nothing but build up sodium in my body...

7. [+16, -1] I guess it'd be more specific to say she lost weight by eating Korean meals, which was a departure from her usual high-calorie American meals that are more oily....

8. [+15, -0] I only read the word kimchi in the title and I'm already salivating;;

9. [+9, -0] Off topic but I googled her because I got curious and her last name's Yoon because she married a Korean man~

10. [+8, -1] Kimchi that is fermented deliciously is probably one of the most delicious foods in the world for me. My body feels different when I eat it compared to when I don't. I heard Americans are eating more of it lately too and I really do hope that proper kimchi as a food spreads far and wide. I was a bit disappointed by the quality of kimchi being served in American restaurants when I went out for a business trip once.

11. [+6, -0] I do think our country has less people over 100 kg because our cuisine is more vegetarian-focused, and thanks to kimchi...

12. [+3, -0] On the contrary, Koreans also suffer from a lot of stomach cancers and high blood pressure because of salted fermented foods like kimchi

13. [+3, -0] So can I be considered dieting if I eat kimchi with samgyusal and kimchi with ramen?
