I lived off that stuff my in first year; as far as I can tell I'm still alive [although I'll admit to waking up screaming sometimes].

As for o-deng, it depends on the place. The place I like gives me a tiny bowl with the sauce in it that I can double dip as much as I like with no worry. Located behind the Kangnam starbucks, just up the hill in case anybody's curious.

I've completely lost my taste for o-deng, but in Chung Dong market in Bucheon a lot of the o-deng stands had nifty little machines with electric eyes that dispensed the soy sauce one drop at a time when you waved your o-deng by it. No worries about double dipping there.

I don't understand what the worry is about heated coffee cans is. They stopped using lead in cans in the 60s, didn't they? Is there some kind of worry about aluminum cans?

Those canned coffees are VERY useful in the winter. They are heated up and if it is cold outside, think of it as a little heater for your pocket/hands.

Sounds like a waste of money, but what I end up doing is when it is really cold I buy them and use up the heat. Then I save them and give them to students as a reward. They don't care if it is hot/warm/cold etc. They love the freebees.


HAHA, I do that all the time!! The heater thing that is!
Screw the students, they don't need free coffee!! They take a little piece of my soul each time I teach them Wink

Yes, but flies can fall in the broth, since it's never covered, in fact anything can fall in there. Yuck, gives me the chills just thinking about that stuff.


GIVE ME A BREAK!!! If it bothers you that much then don't eat any!!! Why the %$#@ are you whining for? Get cultured. Oden is something Koreans eat here and I happen to like it too. I don't think that deeply about the sanitation of it. Just go with it. If it's good enough for your husband then maybe it's good enough for you. Ya think???
