Past the kimchi on the left hand side

So, you've heard about how kimchi can prevent avian flu? This was reported back in March, but the story has kind of fallen by the wayside. Until now, that is, in the midst of allegations that Chinese-produced kimchi has lead and other nasty stuff in it leading to a drop in sales.

Coincidence, surely? No? You're all such cynical bastards. The lot of you.

*Sniff* I'm so proud. Obi-Wan has taught you well.

Still, better safe than sorry: here's how to make your own. And if you can't stand kimchi (I love it myself, no need for bird flu to persuade me to scoff it down), try sauerkraut instead. Either one goes nice on roast beef.
