Kimchi

The poet and literary critic Fred Turner once observed that one culture's soul food, like breast milk, may be nauseating to another. Kimchi is spicy and sour, with the appearance of used bandages and the texture of a drowned man's flesh. It's also delicious, just like breast milk. Many Koreans think kimchi can cure the avian flu, but they also believe in fan death. Go, Koreans.

I think kimchi is very delicious. I'll tell you one Korean dish that is not delicious: beef intestine stir fry. I don't think the Korean aspect is what makes it terrible, though.

What are you, some kind of racist?

I'm racist against intestines. Those are gross and taste like crap. Literal crap.
