Is it normal to eat kimchi by itself?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s normal to eat kimchi by itself. Plenty of people enjoy it as a salty, spicy snack or side dish.
Absolutely. Kimchi is often served alongside a meal, but there’s no rule saying it can’t be the meal—or a snack straight from the container if that’s what you’re in the mood for.
People like its punchy, tangy flavor on its own, and it’s a familiar side dish in Korean food. If you enjoy it, you’re in good company; just keep in mind that it can be pretty salty and spicy.
