Remnants from 2.9.2008 Fermented Foods

As promised on air, I'm posting this very exciting video clip advertising for Kimchi and all its glory. As Adrienne so cleverly points out, please note the "indiscernible pickle/pepper-like action figure, Mr. Kimchi". If you have any thoughts as to what this Mr. Kimchi is supposed to be, whether it's an accurate biological representation or some kind of abstract cartoon imagery, let us know!



In addition, the other videos that we played on Kombucha and Kimchi during our program are linked here...

At first I thought maybe Mr. KimChi was a pepper (my first post that was deleted), but after watching the commercial, I gather he is a representation of a crispy napa cabbage used in kimchi.

Great show on fermented foods! very cool!

yes! cabbage would be the sensible mascot for Kimchi...but i certainly have never seen a cabbage that looks like that!

I think it has pigtails too...haha!
