No, it wouldn't, although it will taste different from newer, less fermented/ripe kimchi. There are many Korean dishes that need old, ripe kimchi like kimchijigae and kimchi fried rice.

right like everyone said, Kimchi can be eaten at any stage. Stores put the expiration date before kimchi gets too fermented. However, some fermented kimchi is very good for making kimchi stew or making kimchi fried rice or else. It just smells stronger as the kimchi gets aged/fermented.

Try this easy recipe if you have some cooked rice to use up fermented kimchi. Heat a wok/frying pan with generous amt of oil(try sesame oil if you have), and crack the egg and stirr. Once eggs are cooked add the thinly sliced kimchi to the wok and stir them until kimchi is cooked. Then add cooked rice and stir them again until all are mixed together well and cooked. You can add little bit of salt if not seasoned well. That will make nice spicy kimchi fried rice.



If anything, the taste would simply have become more delicious with time. I've never seen kimchi go bad and trust me, I've left a jar I'd brought out by mistake in the back of my fridge for a few months before I noticed it, opened it, and made a stew of it.

If it doesn't look like it's gone bad, or smell in a way that it shouldn't then I would say it's safe.
Although I don't think Kimchi is easy to go bad anyways.

Kimchi is already fermented cabbage so it would be next to impossible for it to make you sick if it's been in the fridge.



Expired Kimchi? That's a first.



Never



It shouldn't.

It hasn't gone bad yet.



NO....
For our health we should ban it !
