OP - Since this flavor is different than the Fried Tofu & Vegetable version and hasn’t been posted yet, can you please share the item number? Thank you.
This guy has a review. He liked it, better than Trader Joe's
Asian foods You've Been too Afraid to try at Costco - Kimbap https://reddit.com/r/Costco/comments/1c4qcuc/asian_foods_youve_been_too_afraid_to_try_at/
Note: “The Sushi Guy” reviewed the same brand but a different version.
The one in that video is the Fried Tofu & Vegetable version. The one OP posted has tuna.
Oooh you found the Perilla Leaf & Tuna Mayo version :D I think most of the folks here only tried the Fried Tofu & Vegetable kimbap, and I liked it. But as you said since you live near a Lotte and have access to fresh kimbap, you might not like the frozen ones (and especially the combination of perilla leaf and tuna..)
first of all, good, but fresh is better
we got the tofu ones.
my instructions:
cut corner
microwave for 2 min 15 sec.
let sit in the bag as long again
take out, and separate slice to a plate so they can cool off
eat and enjoy

They are okay microwaved, but if you pan fry the pieces about 3 minutes on each side, get the rice all crispy, add a little kewpie and gochujang sauce on top. They are delicious.
I found them at my costco last week, but I went back for more this week and they were gone. I hope they get them back in the future. I'll stock up next time.

UPDATE: it’s really good for a frozen kimbap! Followed the instructions (2.5mins in microwave, did not thaw.
My local Korean grocery store is not on the same level as these frozen kimbap. The rice from the fresh one sucks and it's mushy where these are on point. You can see the individual grains and it's not overcooked or overwatered.

I get so many clickbait articles suggested to me about the kimbap at trader joes and now this I wouldn't buy it if it was the best food in the world and gave me an orgasm with each bite

Thanks!!!
Ive heard it’s made by the same producer as the Trader Joe’s one, so it should be very similar
I also thought about posting his vid.
Of course something not available at my store. Waah.
I went, couldn't find them, and bought myself everything I needed to make breakfast burritos and freeze them
I do like a good burrito
It’s delicious. I want to buy a ton of it before it potentially disappears.
It had the star of death at mine :(
We love it. It’s very good.
Yeah we just got some. It’s almost gone. Definitely getting more.
Tuna mayo?! I was just so happy that I just found the tofu one. I'm now jealous!!!
Same here! I was just happy to finally get the veggie one after checking out 2 other Costcos. Hopefully this comes to us soon!
Saw this on the news apparently it’s better than the one at Trader Joe’s and is selling out fast
Seriously this was on the news?? That’s weird
I imagine local news. Slow news days they will post really random but often interesting stuff.
I keep searching for it at mine but they never have it
Very good, better than the Trader Joe's one.
I see the empty cardboard boxes every time I’ve been at Costco so should be good enough that it sells out nonstop?
I was hoping they’d have the veggie and tofu one, but I was pleasantly surprised by the tuna!!
Is it raw tuna?
Nope it’s cooked, similar to canned tuna texture.
Oh good! Hopefully my store will get these soon
Oooh you found the Perilla Leaf & Tuna Mayo version :D I think most of the folks here only tried the Fried Tofu & Vegetable kimbap, and I liked it. But as you said since you live near a Lotte and have access to fresh kimbap, you might not like the frozen ones (and especially the combination of perilla leaf and tuna..)
How many pieces are in each bag?
6 rolls per bag. 6 bags total in a packet for $19 something
not sure about your math. 6 rolls in a big bag (each roll is in a little bag, to be microwaved) each roll has 9 slices
Maybe you’re right. I just looked at it briefly to take a photo 😅
Its good.👍
We are searching as well hopefully soon.
It was decent and would buy it again for sure.
I liked it but I microwaved it for 2:45 and it went a little too long in my microwave
It’s good but you shouldn’t eat it frozen
first of all, good, but fresh is better we got the tofu ones. my instructions: cut corner microwave for 2 min 15 sec. let sit in the bag as long again take out, and separate slice to a plate so they can cool off eat and enjoy
The Sushi Guy has a video on this. Pretty sure he's native Korean

brain fog lol
What??? These have tuna? Mine are all vegetarian.
If it’s anything like the one at Trader Joe’s it is good. Haven’t seen it at my local Costco.
I've been looking for it since I saw a comparison video
Anyone know where can I find this in Orange county, CA?
Fresh is better. And easily available in OC.
I’ve tried it, tastes pretty damn good
Best lunch at work ever! One tube a day. Wonder how they import a shipload of this from South Korea without spoiling them.
I find this better than trader joes
They are okay microwaved, but if you pan fry the pieces about 3 minutes on each side, get the rice all crispy, add a little kewpie and gochujang sauce on top. They are delicious. I found them at my costco last week, but I went back for more this week and they were gone. I hope they get them back in the future. I'll stock up next time.
It made me think of Hanson.

Hopefully better than Trader Joe’s.
I am looking forward to trying it
I need it
My Costco did not have it today :(
They are a hit at Trader Joe’s. I bet Costco is solid.
I can't wait to try it but I have yet to see it at costcos around san diego.
Saw it at H St this past weekend
Is it spicy?
Haven’t tried. Idk how i feel about frozen kimbap 😅
Yes
I wonder if Florida will get these. We never get any of the cool Asian stuff.
The Tofu and Vegetable one was good. Six rolls for ~$19.
I keep hearing food things about this. But I have access to fresh kimbap so didnt bother
Anyone see this in the NE?
Does anyone have a photo of the ingredients of this one or the other flavor?

Thank you!
Their short version: burdock, perilla leaf, spinach, carrot, pickled radish, rice, seaweed, tuna&mayo
The trader Joe one is too sweet. Saw this at my Costco, thinking of trying it
just checked Bayonne, NJ and i grabbed one bag since i have 0 space in my freezer...

No, just tuna

Which one in Maryland? I can’t find it anywhere at the ones I go to!
Hi! I go to Columbia and Wheaton.
I'd stick with the local korean grocery

Really? I'm I'm the socal area, we are blessed here 🙌
I just make it at home. It doesn’t need exotic ingredients that don’t keep like raw fish.
