Red Pepper Spice Seasoning for Asian Food. MSG Free. : desertcart.co.uk: Grocery Review: makes great kimchee a must for Korean soup and other dishes Review: My wife ordered this thinking it was Korean. When it arrived it had a very nice flavor, like a mild cayenne. This is nice. Nothing to write home about, but nice. I scanned the packaging and processed and packaged in Korea. But closer examination revealed it is grown in China to keep costs down!! We try as much as we can to NOT buy things made in China. And definitely nothing grown in China. We can't trust ANYTHING GROWN in China after the melamine purposely mixed in dog foods and sold in the USA to pet food producers. Both our dogs were adversely affected by that. Melamine was added to raise the protein levels. But is toxic to animals. Plus, China is one of the most polluted countries in the world! And since they don't accept returns on this, we're stuck with this, so were going to use it as compost. (Not sure that is a good idea). We are really disappointed. Too bad we didn't read the description and Q&A closely enough. Shame on us! We learned a lesson!! ## Features - RED CHILI PEPPER FOR PASTE - Fine and soft gochugaru powder used for making gochujang and cooking soup-based Korean dishes.
