Nevermind my previous response. It was just delayed by a couple of days. The pooping is real. My roommate is angry. This apartment smells like the inside of bloated roadkill.
@Gallowmere1984 Try to find lacto-fermented sauerkraut. Your roommate will thank you.2 -
I'm sure most of you know but cooking Sauerkraut over 77 degrees does start to kill the probiotics to help feed your healthy gut. Have no fear as there are many good health benefits in kraut even without the probiotics too.
Also, if you want the probiotics, avoid the canned or jarred and buy fresh kraut in the refrigerated sections. Pasteurization kills the healthy critters too.5 -
I adore kimchi. Absolutely love the stuff.2

It might sound weird, but yesterday I was making tuna sandwiches for lunch for my boys and wanted a tuna sandwich too...so did my daughter, and she's low carb as well... We came up with the idea of a tuna "melt" of sorts...
We put two circles of grated cheddar cheese on a cookie sheet and baked them for about 6 minutes at 375 until they were bubbly and the edges were browning. Once they cooled down, we took them off the cookie tray in one big flat circle like a tortilla made of cheese. Spread on the tuna mixed with mayo, salt and pepper, and add some lettuce, roll up like a burrito!
YUM it was super tasty. Greasy, because of the cheese, and I think maybe dabbing the circle of cheese on paper towel before filling and rolling it would help, but wow! It was so good. usually I just roll things up in a romaine lettuce leaf, but this was delicious!7 -
I read the title as "Dear God, the FOOLS I am falling in love with" and clicked in all ready to read the juicy details
Oh well, I did find a few things to put on my grocery list though. 3 -

There's also Crème Fraîche, a highly orgasmic agent similar to Mascarpone. 11g fat, < 1g carb, 0 protein.
Vermont Creamery makes both of 'em, and they are friggin' fantastic:

Creme fraiche is delish! I use it as a much yummier alternative to sour cream. And if you really want the sour taste, a squirt of lemon or lime juice will get you there. Its the perfect base for a creamy salad dressing and its yummy dumped on top of some spicy beef or chicken.
No separation anxiety?
Nope, it doesn't separate or curdle, just don't heat it up and make sure you eat it up within 24-48 hours. My favorite dressing is creme fraiche, lime juice, garlic, salt, smoked paprika, chilli powder (actual dried chillis powdered, not the blended chilli powder), cumin, and ground allspice.
Wow! Sounds great. Where did you run across this?
I saw some Lime & Chilli dip in the grocery store, so I just whipped up my own version at home without all the extra questionable ingredients that no one can pronounce.2 -

I bought kimchi because of this thread and now I don't know what to eat it with. LOL Suggestions? We're having BBQ'd smokies this week, so I thought I'd try it on those... any other ideas?0

Eat it out of the jar, like a heathen.
I just use it as a side accompaniment with meat. Smokies should be good!4 -

Pretty much this. It goes exceptionally well with eggs, but any meat that I have paired it with thus far (including ground beef, chicken thighs, wings, and legs, etc.) has worked very well with it.2 -
I mix kimchi with cooked greens or cabbage and ham hocks. Delicious!!!

I got some cabbage, and I'm going to try my hand at making some. Thanks @RalfLott for the video!0

I also just scoop a pile onto my plate to eat with meat, but its also pretty good in a spicy asian soup. I'll often just toss it in a pot with some miso & dashi or some chicken broth along with some garlic, ginger, lemongrass, fresh chillis & some chopped up bits of chicken, beef or pork.2 -

@Gallowmere1984 Try to find lacto-fermented sauerkraut. Your roommate will thank you.
I hope your butt is feeling better now, I suggest getting a lot of Febreeze and scented candles in to kill the poop smell and some aloe vera butt wipes, your backside will thank you.
Where I am from we eat a lot of sauerkraut, I have yet to make my own or find a decent substitute here in the UK, but we eat it with anything meaty, makes a great and refreshing side dish. I have been known to eat it straight out from the jar with a fork from the fridge. I've had Kimchi a few times at Korean restaurants and OMG that stuff is amazing!2 -

Screw that noise. Their kids annoy the hell out of me, and this is a free way for me to get back at them. Bonus points because my apartment is under an building old code, where a ventilation fan isn't required in the bathroom.6
