I won't remove it from the gimbap, but it's a taste I've never learned to like here after four years.

P.S. Jessica Alba is hot.

I love it but its so expensive in Canada. My theory about english teachers in Korea is that its all a big scam. they don't actually want to teach their kids the language, they just want to create a gaggle of foreigners addicted to the food so that it will become popular on the international market at stupendous prices!

I don't "love" it, but it's pretty good. I got a box of packaged seaweed once from a company I worked for and I made some nice soup out of it. Kimbap is nice too.

I love kimbap that has Jessica wrap in it.

'gim' tastes pretty good. In Northern Ireland we eat dried seaweed called 'dulse'. It's not like gim. It's a type of seaweed plucked directly from the sea and simply dried in the sun. Nice 'n' salty. My Korean wife loved it when we visited N.I.

BTW, gim tastes good probably because it's dipped in oil during processing. It's not exactly a low-fat food.

Love the stuff...didn't like it before I came here....

It an be prepared in so many different ways that it is hard not to like one of them!

Gim---- is apparently Laver in English....its a type of seaweed but not the stuff you eat in soups and such. Apparently.......don't get angry at me. My coworker (Korean) was explaining it to me. I usually buy a big thing of Gim I basically eat it as a snack like one would eat chips. I like the seaweed soup though I don't think I could eat it every day.

I think most English speakers are more familiar for the Japanese names for sea vegetables. I knew laver/gim as nori before living in Korea.

Woo hoo, go seaweed. It's winning in the poll!
