  We show that the Golod property of a Stanley-Reisner ring can depend on the
characteristic of the base field. More precisely, for every finite set $T$ of
prime numbers we construct simplicial complexes $\Delta$ and $\Gamma$, such
that $\mathbb{K}[\Delta]$ is Golod exactly in the characteristics in $T$ and
$\mathbb{K}[\Gamma]$ is Golod exactly in the characteristics not in $T$. Along
the way, we show that a one-dimensional simplicial complex is Golod if and only
if it is chordal.
