Kimchi a bit

Can you give me just one bundle of kimchi? Don't bring a lot since I have nowhere to put it, seriously

Only the kimchi sound comes through

There's no kimchi...?

I'm starving

There's no kimchi

I'm dying!!

I can't eat rice!!

Mom

Save me!

Mom's brain

Kimchi

After this happened once, I just started making kimchi in small batches myself.

Can you send me just one container? Don't bring too much since I don't have room, seriously

๐Ÿฐ

If I only ate napa cabbage kimchi I'd starve, so bring young radish kimchi, fresh-made kimchi, water kimchi, scallion kimchi, and diced cucumber kimchi too

๐ŸฆŠ

If that sounds like too much work, I'll just buy it myself

๐ŸฆŠ

this is the most wholesome thing I've seen all week, moms shipping food across the world hits different fr

๐ŸฆŠ

I don't eat that much so even one container lasts forever, and by the time I get through it I'm eating super fermented kimchi lmao

๐ŸฆŠ

Yes mom. Kimchi? The one you sent last time still has more than half left. Yes. Please don't send any more. Yes. Yes.

๐Ÿฐ

??? "'Kimchi... send... please send more...' request received."

Mom: "But I just made fresh kimchi this year. Just taste it, just a bite"

๐Ÿฐ

Only half the kimchi left...?! Oh no my fridge is empty, I'm gonna go hungry soon!

๐ŸฆŠ

Same, it feels like too much of a burden so I just buy kimchi, but I tried aging it in my hotel mini-fridge and it tasted amazing

๐ŸฆŠ

Nothing's worse than stale, funky-smelling kimchi

๐Ÿฐ

Lol same, so I just buy it and told her to stop sending any since I still have kimchi from last time

๐ŸฆŠ

lmaooo this is so relatable, my mom literally sends me packages of food every month like I can't eat without her ๐Ÿ˜ญ

If you grab some pork shoulder and make kimchi stew a few times, you'll finish it quick. Add soju with the kimchi stew and it never gets old hahahaha

๐ŸฆŠ

I felt this in my soul ๐Ÿ’” nobody makes it like mom does, no matter where you are

๐ŸฆŠ

Literal kimchi storage unit lol

๐Ÿฐ

I just buy 1-2kg at a time lmao

๐ŸฆŠ

why is this hitting different... my parents do this exact thing and I always pretend I don't want it but secretly I'm obsessed

๐ŸฆŠ

Went to get kimchi and came back with kimchi, red bean porridge, and random other stuff

๐Ÿฐ

Noooo it won't all fit like this!

๐ŸฆŠ

kimchi is actually life, I'd ask my mom for some too if she knew how to make it

๐ŸฆŠ

ok but her mom probably sent the GOOD kimchi, homemade hits way different than store bought ngl

๐ŸฆŠ

this is me but with my grandma's dal... international students really do just need their parents' cooking to survive lol
