          there are korean people in ireland. in dublin there’s a street thats close to being acknowledged as little korea, but its also populated with a lot of lgbt bars and such, so there’s no clear majority

              guh i would not buy tesco kimchi… there are a bunch of decent asian food shops that have a bunch of korean brands

              interestingly, this one korean food counter that sells bulgogi and bibimbap etc has corndogs, and they had one called potato corndog, which I expected to be a hotdog surrounded in a hashbrown style sheath, but it turned out to look like a pinecone with short french fries sticking out in an orderly manner. my wife was horrified

                Eh get what you can I guess. I buy kimchi from target. Tesco kimchi can’t be much worse, can it?

                That sounds divine! Why would she be horrified by this?!

                  she just was not in the mood for such an abomination. you have to picture the little fry ends being stuck into the hotdog in a tight and symmetrical lattice pattern. depending on your mood its either pretty great or a sign of the end times

                    Idk man your Irish potato lattice corn dog sounds like food innovation to me but I wasn’t there. I could see just wanting to eat something and not have to deal with the newness though, I suppose. There’s some days when I just want to eat oatmeal and fruit and nothing else.
