Kale all by itself is not very flavorful.

My wife buys kale and mixes it in with the other greens and it absorbs the flavors of those greens, so it’s like an amplifier of those pricier greens..............

I dont know where your at but, over 95 % of the green veggies come from the Yuma AZ area or southern CA in the winter nationwide...Yuma is said to produce the majority.
Doesnt matter which store you purchase from.

How long it stays on display at those stores is up to that store.

Part of the artificial food shortage?

Has Trump’s FDA pick been voted on yet?

They seem out of control lately.

I told my mother and later in life I told my wife: Broccoli is a poison. Neither would listen.

I’m in PA and I suspect Walmart refrigerates them or otherwise preserves them longer than broccoli in other stores. Not my area of expertise at all, but the taste and texture are distinctly different.
And yet overall, the Walmart produce section is clean and attractive.

Steamed is more nutritious but yes, boiling is safer, especially in broccoli where anything could be hiding. I have seen things in broccoli that make me want to put ivermectin dressing on it.

If you ever saw the area this stuff is grown...
In Yuma, right next to the border.

They jump the border, take a dump in the feild and continue on.
That feild is then supposed to be condemned and the crop destroyed.
But, they cant always know untill its to late.

Do like we said.

Head lettuce...take off the outer leaves. We have a neighbor who even puts it under a black light.

The rest of these veggies like cucumbers, etc, can be washed and peeled.
