About eight months ago I returned to the United States from Korea where I was introduced to a powder called sunsik that you can mix with milk or water and consume as a meal. I loved it so much that a Korean friend has been sending it to me for a few months now. I recently read some articles suggesting that sunsik might be prone to bacteria. Does anyone know the proper way to store sunsik and how long it lasts?

Prone to bacteria?! I bet that is the least of your troubles.

Odds are the product is made in China using some kind of carcinogenic chemicals and you are probably slowly poisoning yourself.

Best bear in mind that you are in a country where money is god and anyone will do anything to separate you from your cash, including selling you garbage labeled health food (remember the toxic baby formula? Or melamine-laden Prima?). Shop online from a country which at least pretends to have some form of consumer protection.

I wish I were joking or even just being cynical. As it stands I am simply realistic. Read up on the fake trade in China. They even make fake eggs.
