	Grimchi is a foodstuff known and mainly avoided in parts of the [[Agatean Empire]]. It is created by taking significantly large amounts of cabbage (the [[cabbage\|Jolly Giant]] variety, for preference, although the Choi Champion is also a recognised variety), macerating it, adding pickling vinegar and the ''very special'' [[Seven Spice Black Powder]] whose precise chemical composition is a closely-guarded secret known only to grimchi-adepts back home. The ingredients are then thoroughly stirred, placed into specially reinforced fermentation vats, and, once firmly sealed, buried in the earth for seven years. In ''very'' deep pits.
