**A special note** If you plan on making Kimchi for your next meal make sure you plan 3 or 28 days ahead of time because for each Kimchi it takes about 3-28 days to prepare! This depends on whether or not you are making the Kimchi from scratch.

Interviews at University at Albany on 187 Different Kinds of Kimchi:
After finding out that Kimchi can be made in 187 different ways I decided to interview students and ask them whether or not they knew that Kimchi comes in 187 different varieties. The questions I asked include "Could you tell me how many different types of Kimchi there are?, How many different types have you tried?, Did you know that there are over 100 different types of Kimchi?". Please view the Interviews and the reactions to these questions below.
Interview with Kathleen (TESOL), Interviewer: Did you know that there are over 100 different varieties of Kimchi? Kathleen: I only know of one type of Kimchi which is spicy and red...but if you say varieties than I guess there are more types of Kimchi? Interviewer: Yea the Kimchi that you know of is the type of Kimchi that most people think of when they are asked about Kimchi. But actually Kimchi is not always made with cabbage. Sometimes the main ingredient is onions or radish. Kathleen: hummm very interesting I will have to look that up sometime.
Interview with Shao Li (Economics) Interviewer: How many different types of Kimchi have you heard of or tried? Shao Li: I know that there are about five different types. I lived with a Korean family once and we ate Kimchi for every meal. We ate one of those five everyday. Interviewer: So do you think those are the onlt types of Kimchi? Shao Li: no, I bet there are a few more but we just ate those five.... Interviewer: try 187 different types. Shao Li: (shocked Shao Li's mouth spread wide open) Are you serious! That insane! How could that be possible....Koreans love their Kimchi..hahaha
Interview with Nic (TESOL)
Interviewer: Did you know that there are 187 different types of Kimchi? Nic: Well I do now because you just told me. Interviewer: How many have you tried? Nic: Well I tried the leafy cabbage kind and the cubed kind I also tried the green one with onions I think. I studied in Korea for a half semester so I had many different chances to try Kimchi. However, before I went to Korea I went to New Orleans in 2009 and visited a French neighbor. In that neighborhood I visited a restaurant that seemed to look like the average all american restaurant but they had a Kimchi burger there. It was an amazing burger!!
