Don’t think I’ve ever seen it on the shelves at Trader Joe’s, only their prices n house brand. I know Whole Foods in Newton and shrewsbury definitely carried it last I’ve been to either. Could imagine all other local locations would have it too.

Hope you find it

Ok cool, I thought WF might since I used to shop there more frequently. Do you ever visit Trader Joe’s? I was thinking perhaps they had it since I haven’t been to one in a while either.

You could try H-Mart. We go to the one in Burlington which isn't South Shore but maybe there's one down there. The H-Mart in Burlington has a big Kimchi section.

I’m not sure but have you tried making your own kimchi? It’s super easy and you can adjust the taste how you like it. You can make a huge gallon jar of it for cheaper than buying a small one in the store.

The best and most authentic “big” brand of kimchi.

Only place I’ve been able to find it anymore is whole foods

Honestly it's all about the manager.

One I stopped at recently where the lady who was making the breakfast sandwiches had a customer bring her German Shepherd into the food prep area, feed the dog hot dogs from the cooler, let the dogs lick her hands and face and went right back to making breakfast sandwiches without changing gloves or washing hands.

I like dogs and all but that's nasty AF.

I've been to that particular location a bunch of times and it always looks like a bomb went off in there (dirty, boxes everywhere, workers smoking butts outside the door right next to the propane tanks.) Total shitshow.

Holy shit - I had no idea they sold! We've got two of the remodeled stores out here on Nantucket, and over the past few years, one of them has completely lost the plot - always filthy and half-stocked - but the other one is "great."
