North Korea has threatened the United States with nuclear attack. The communist regime is reacting to new UN sanctions it received after being caught conducting a third underground nuclear test last month. Pyongyang has specifically targeted Washington DC, and we residents of ground zero are a bit more edgy, even though the USA has Dennis Rodman playing man-on-man with Kim Jong Un.
But what if the whole premise of the UN sanctions is off-base? There might be other causes of seismic upheaval under the Asian peninsula. Korea has been conducting powerful underground tests for centuries. These aren’t for atomic weapons, they’re for something more important: kimchi. Koreans bury pots full of vegetables and leave them to pickle. If you don’t think the results are powerful, you’re not eating real kimchi.
