Can anybody comment on the difference between Suan Cai and Kimchi? Based on this article, it's difficult to say.Groogle 05:35, 1 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
The difference is that chili and garlic are used in kimchi whereas no spice except salt is used to make suan cai.--Manchurian Tiger 16:52, 1 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
This is not strictly true; some varieties of suan cai include chilies. The Jade Knight (talk) 05:16, 20 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

On the Food Network, an American sauerkraut manufacturer stated that the Chinese invented sauerkraut; he said that during the building of the Great Wall, they wanted to supplement their rice diet, so they preserved cabbages in large jars with wine, which created the necessary fermentation. Is this correct? Badagnani (talk) 06:37, 10 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Actually, it just means sour veggies. All over the country, lots of different vegetables are used, including daikon and carrot. I'll try and grab a photo. The lede shouldn't just say cabbage. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:13, 19 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
Suan Cai literally translates into sour vegetable, but is most commonly made from leaf vegetables. 96.51.68.70 (talk) 06:49, 1 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
