    Went to a BBQ yesterday, took along the usual assortment of booze and meats and stuff. I realise that on the way there we'll pass by the shop where I get my Kimchi from, so I pop in and get a jar.

    Get to the BBQ and put it on the table then open it up and I'm the only cunt who has any. Noticing the type of people that were there (one person aside, none of them are people I know) I mention that it's vegan kimchi - still no fucking buyers.

    At the end of the food, the table's getting cleared up and I hazard another try to get people to have some - no dice. Seeing so much stuff just getting hoyed into the bin, I make a point of mentioning that the kimchi should be refrigerated, then just go and do it myself. When I get back home, I realise I didn't mention to my friend that she should open the jar every day or so to let gases expel.

    What's the point?

    That jar of kimchi is not going to get eaten, I can fucking tell. It's probably already been binned.

    I'm so sorry, my little friend. I let us both down.

    • Kimchi is not for everyone, sure isn't for mespl33nidoru
    • YOU'RE WRONG!

    • Now the other guests are probably texting each other, “who was that annoying kimchi guy. God he wouldn’t shut up about his kimchi. Mr kimchi kimchi kimchi”
      ********
    • Given that I only once mentioned it, in its being Vegan-friendly, probably not,Nairn
    • I mean, fair enough - you guys can moan about it, given I've mentioned it an entire two times here on QBN.Nairn
    • I had Kimchi once.

      Once.

    • It's 20:08 the next day and I'm at work and slightly miserable and i could really do with that jar of barely-touched kimchi.
      I'm so sorry, little friend.

    • What is it yous guys don't like about the kimchi? sourness? saltiness? spiciness? fishiness? I can't stand the fishiness, so I can only do the vegan shitNairn
    • Um ... are you *sure* it was vegan-friendly? Typically, kimchi contains salted seasfood of some description, or fish sauce.Continuity
    • The vegans might've thought you were taking the piss.Continuity
    • And for the record, I love kimchi. With the fishiness (which is odd for me, cos I fucking hate fish and seafood).Continuity
    • Having never tasted it I can only say the one thing i don’t like about it is the stench, that prevented further interest.spl33nidoru
    • haha, yeah - when i first opened the jar it reaked of hell-anus and then inflated and spilt over the table, 'living organism' as it is. Stinky fucker.Nairn
    • @cont - aye, it's labelled as 'accidentally vegan'. It's made in my manor here in LDN. Good stuff.Nairn
    • Hm, well.
      On a side note, I wonder if your friend didn't forget she has it, and hasn't detonated in her fridge by now.

    • Glass shrapnel and fermented cabbage EVERYWHERE.Continuity
    • This is like the Seinfeld story of Kimchi. So fucking pointless, but moderately humorous.BusterBoy
    • I was never much into Seinfeld (Curb, yes) but I'll take that! My life is all about trying to find interest in the mundane. It's all I have left :)Nairn
    • @cont - 1st time I had kimchi years ago, I *loved* it .. for about 6 seconds and then the fishiness presented itself and I gagged. I literally cannot do fish.Nairn
    • It's a pisser for me as lots of asian dishes use fish or oyster sauce. I can *just about* do italian stuff with a smidge of anchovy... sometimes.Nairn
    • I relate 100%!BusterBoy
