yum. Kimchee

 Kimchee, pinoy style:


....

we have a new Korean restaurant in town, around the corner from us.

No, I haven't eaten there yet. 

I avoid extra spicy foods, and much of Korean food is spicy.

No, although kimchee is traditionally used as a flu prevention, and now for covid, there is no good proof that it helps. LINK

however, the health benefits of kimchee is from vitamins (especially vitamin C) and that it is a fermented food, meaning it is full of good bacteria, similar to the healthy benefits of yogurt and other probiotic foods.

And yes, there are reports that probiotics do help with covid infection.
