Why is shipping expensive?
Kimchee Girl kimchee needs to stay refrigerated, so we pack our kimchee in an insulated package with cooler packs. Shipping costs are a little pricey, but we're shipping via UPS 2nd day air. This will allow your kimchee to arrive from our refrigerator to yours still cool.
Why did my kimchee fizzed when I opened it?
Sooo... if you open your kimchee and it overflows or fizzes because the package was under pressure, it's normal. As your kimchee ferments, the byproduct is carbon dioxide. This results in pressure building up inside the package. No worries... your kimchee is alive with good bacteria which is great for gut health.
