why am I see gimbap everywhere all of a sudden?

>>21484408 (OP)
Another asian food grift. I am shocked there isn't a "roll your own roll" place yet that charges $29.99 to make your own rolls yourself at the table.

>>21484414
lmao
They're only $7 for two big-ass rolls of bulgogi gimbap.

Because you live in some flyover 10-15 years behind everyone else. The gimbap fad was, like, a decade ago.
Wait until you learn about mirror fondant!

>>21484408 (OP)
This may be because unlike sushi, vinegar is not used for rice and raw fish is not necessary, but the nori used for formal gimbap is seasoned with sesame oil and salt.
However, when making it at home, ordinary nori is sometimes used.

>>21484474
Ohhhh nooo I live in a flyover state, I am forced to eat fresh produce and meat from farmers I know. How ever will I live without seeweed rice rolls lmao

Korea is trying hard to beat Japan in cultural exports.

they really want america to think they're cool

>Korea is trying hard to beat Japan in cultural exports.
North Korea can try, but I don't really see how they will succeed, unless they are exporting functional nuclear warheads.
Yes, it is possible to use conventional munitions to imitate nuclear explosions...

Why lie?
We already know, from the glowing examples of Midwestern cuisine posted literally everywhere on the Internet without a hint of irony, that the majority of what you gelatinous creatures eat is Wendy McChickFilA King tendies from inside the Walmart-Costco. Your "cooking" is opening a bag of Green Giant™ frozen mixed vegetables, topping it with a bag of frozen Perdue™ grilled chicken breast, mixing it with a tin of Campbell's™ and topping it with Ore-Ida™ tater tots.
If you ever bothered to waddle over to your bookshelf to look at your copy of The French Chef, you'd find the bookmark right where you left it 15 years ago: at page 3.
I've been to enough Midwestern church picnics and potlucks to know that you people barely cook and you certainly don't eat fresh produce.

>>21484408 (OP)
why eat this instead of sushi? can't afford fish?

>>21484649
Before the Japanese invented uncooked fish, the German invented uncooked meat made from ground up mammals. It is commonly known as the cannibal sandwich. Humans are mammals.

Please stop using English with a Germanic grammatical structure. African-American Vernacular English is typically considered to be a lower class language.

>>21484649
It's probably because it's cheaper to make than sushi.

>>21484649
>why eat this instead of sushi?
I don't really like sushi.
>can't afford fish?
While it /is/ cheaper than sushi, I actually love fish. I just don't like sushi much. It's okay. I don't get what so the hubbub is about.
>>21484675
Almost certainly the reason it was first created and thank goodness for that frugality cuz I fucks with the stuff hard.

>>21484649
I'm guessing the Japanese hoarded the fish for themselves when they were under Japanese rule so they had to improvise and it became its own thing.
source: my ass

>>21484747
My assumption, too.

>>21484721
By the way, there have been many recipes that don't use raw fish in Japanese rural sushi rolls and home sushi rolls since long ago.
The difference with gimbap is that rice is seasoned with vinegar and sugar, no chili pepper seasoning, and no seaweed seasoned with sesame oil or salt.

>>21484408 (OP)
Post the webm already

>>21484769
I'm pretty sure the rice is seasoned with sesame oil and salt for gimbap and I'm not sure I've ever had one that had chili pepper in the rice at all.

>>21484798
Maybe you only met Korean old style gimbaps.
If you look for it, you will find gimbap with kimchi or beef seasoned with chili sauce.

I wonder how sushi really became a thing, since if you can cook rice, why can't you also cook fish?

>>21484861
They also have cooked fish dishes. It's just that really fresh fish is tasty when raw.

>>21484861
There was no refrigeration so they'd ferment the fish in rice for shelf life. Nowadays they use vinegar as a substitute for fermentation.

Korea is a fake country filled with ugly nasty gooks that obsess about vanity. They have dark, ugly souls, and real human interaction is so vanishing fleet that it may be deemed extinct in their culture. There are no redeeming qualities to be found in the modern cosmopolitan Korea, no silver lining amidst the hype-pop-glamour of their incessant virtual simulacra. By the end of the century, Korea will cease to exist, and nobody will miss them.

>>21485085
lmao
A Korean friend of mine said something similar, like, 20 years ago.

>>21485085
Thank you, Comrade, for espousing the truth about south koreans. They are a subhuman lot, not even fit to lick the dirt from the underside of a North Korean soldier's boot.

English is a germanic language
The grammar of someone speaking proper English is almost identical to that of a scandinavian language

Aw heck, I forgot this is in /ck/
Uuuuhh pork feet and potatoes

I rest my case.
Anyhow, what is gimbap? I've never heard of it before.

>>21484612

>>21485960
"ooga booga bix nood"
tell me what word class "bix" and "nood" are
if "bix" is a verb and "nood" is a noun or an adverb, then it is a proper sentence structure in both English AND scandinavian

i think you're mistaking grammar for niggerish word-building and spelling
