Spicy Premium Fermented Kimchi Napa Cabbage [ FUN SIZE Pouch Pack of 8] - [Original] – (Gluten Free / KETO / Vegan) | 0 Fat/ 0 Sugar/ 0 Cholesterol | Long Shelf Life | Perfect for Ramen & Stir-Fries - JONGGA

I have to say, this is pretty legit kimchi for something from a shelf-stable bag! My cousin's wife, who is Korean, makes a lot of homemade kimchi in a variety of recipes, and since we hang out a good bit, I eat a lot. Not an expert, but I know the good stuff. This is not homemade, but any stretch, but it is far, far better than I expected. I purchased these for a lengthy camping trip, for when the fresh veggies ran out, and was pleasantly surprised when I cracked open a bag. The texture is excellent, there's some radish and thick ribs left to give it a nice crunch. There's a nice little heat, but it isn't demanding, has some proper funk. Now I get these pretty often. They are really convenient to snack on at work, or dump in a ramen, or stir fry with some rice when I am in a hurry. I find one package is a good-sized serving for me. Even my 15 year old likes them (I find the wrappers in her room). Just don't expect the depth and intensity of homemade or some of the quality refrigerated ones from H Mart, and you will probably enjoy these. The two spicy ones are pretty legit spicy, and I love heat!

I've never had Kimchi before but wanted to try it and I wanted it to be real Korean. A lot of people are touting fermented foods and I was interested. This is delicious! Flavorful, a bit spicy, crunchy napa cabbage and so easy to keep on hand because it's in shelf-stable packets. The 8 packets are sturdy, came in a firm cardboard box--everything was easy to open. There are three servings per packet and they are small servings by U.S. standards but it works. I had the first as a topping on a pork steak--excellent. The second I had alongside a small steak. The last I just ate as is because it was delicious. It would make a great sandwich addition--hot dog, burger, or chicken. I'm planning to try it with everything I like. It's low carb, low calorie, no sugars, and even the sodium is low enough for me. I have to restrict my salt. I'm also diabetic so I pay close attention to ingredients. No guilt food. A side dish or a condiment. Fermented cabbage may be a health food but I'm going to be buying it because it's delightful.

These were nicely sized packets for individual use. Also a nice size to add for a serving of two fried races. I’m not thrilled with the spice Contant they are not hot at all, which I kind of look forward to in a Kim Chi they’re OK just not as spicy as I expected from the label.

I can't fault it because its not my kimchi-cup-of-tea so to speak, but its much different than American made kimchi's, and completely unlike any kimchi I've had in Asia (not Korea, haven't been there). I was excited to try this because its been mentioned by several influencers who have lived and do a lot of content from Korea, but I'm pretty disappointed in it. There is absolutely no heat to this, its more like red bell pepper paste mixed with napa cabbage. While its fresh, has great texture and is conveniently packaged in small pouches, it lacks the punch and flavor I really look for in a kimchi.

I love fresh kimchi in the refrigerated section of the supermarket. I like to eat it just as it is. This canned kimchi is ok for hot dishes like scrambled eggs. Omelets, grilled cheese, fried rice etc but not for eating right out of the can. It does not have the same crunch and freshness that refrigerated kimchi has. I cannot get kimchi where I live rurally. The quality for canned is good and the quantity is great for one maybe two persons for prep. It is convenient. Not too spicy.

Perfect serving size. Has a good spicy kick but not too spicy. Exactly what I was looking for.

Highly recommend. As others have mentioned it’s a unique take on kimchi flavor and texture but it’s immediately delicious and appealing in whatever application you’d want to use kimchi. Not as spicy as some kimchi so you can eat it in larger quantity as a main meal ingredient instead of as a garnish. The pouches are a perfect format for portions (one packet is good for a generous serving or 2-3 regular portions) while keeping the rest fresh for a long time, unlike jarred kimchi where I inevitably throw away much of the jar when it has been opened too long between uses. Super easy at-work lunch meal is a package of this kimchi opened on top of a an individual package of microwaved sticky rice. No refrigeration or ice pack needed, just toss a package of rice and a package of kimchi and a pair of chopsticks in your lunch bag and go.

Great for travel and camping. Does not have to be refrigerated and stores small, Not as good as home made, but is decent for the short term.

Très bon et tout petit juste pour un repas pas plus

My first time trying kimchi. I have nothing to compare it to but I know I like it a lot. The price of this was high considering the ingredients used, but it is nice to get the idea on taste. I liked it enough that I've decided to find a recipe and make my own. It was well worth the try for sure. Perfect crunchiness and spice for my tastes.

Muito bom produto picante mas poderia ser mais para o meu gosto.

Honestly, I never thought kimchi would taste this good. The flavor is perfectly balanced — tangy, slightly spicy, and full of umami. It doesn’t feel overly salty or sour like some brands I’ve tried before. I started adding it to rice, eggs, and even sandwiches, and it instantly elevates the meal. It also feels light and gut-friendly, which is a great bonus.

For this size Is a rip off
