Kimchi in the news, again*

OK, headline is a bit misleading, but ...

"S. Korea questions safety of national dish kimchi"

The article states that "a study by the Seoul Research Institute of Public Health and Environment had indicated that Chinese imports contained three to five times more lead than domestic kimchi."

Hmm, wonder where San Francisco kimchi comes from. Will have to check my kimchi jar.

*On April 29, 2005, the Wall Street Journal also had an article ("Scientist Believes South Korea's National Dish Can Fight Bird-Flu Virus" -- accessible if you have an account) about kimchi.
