how much rice are we getting?

My friend's parents are farmers and grow rice.  When she asked us we wanted a bag and that she would get us a good deal, we said absolutely.  Check out what we got...

O. can't believe it either - 20 kg (44 pounds) of lovely, organic, white rice!!  Seeing as we eat rice every day, sometimes at all three meals, it actually isn't as crazy as it seems...right??  Although, next to O. it does look awfully big....

Something else that we eat every day, and sometimes at all three meals, is kimchi.  Koreans eat so much kimchi that they have separate refrigerators just for kimchi.  They take their kimchi very seriously here.  :)  For more information, see the wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimchi

Just to let you know, that is one 4 kg (8.8 pounds) bag of kimchi with two 800 gram (1.7 pounds) free bags of kimchi taped to it.  In addition to rice and kimchi, Koreans also seem really fond of taping free things to all manner of grocery items.  At the store today there were rolls of paper towels taped to bags of frozen dumplings and every time I get milk there is usually a smaller container of milk or some yogurt drinks taped to it.  

And just to give you the full picture, here are some pics of the kimchi fridge in action.  Don't you all want some kimchi now??
