As far as I am concerned, kale is a weed.

Kale is almost as bitter as rhubarb, and it wilts down to nothing after a boil. If I want greens, I usually choose collards, white cabbage, mustard or turnip greens. Arugula, by the way is equally bitter and unappealing in my opinion.

Find a good cook from the south (who is not in your family). If they were made well in your household, you’d never have made the statement above.

Get their recipe for greens.

Make them at Thanksgiving.

Your tune will change.

I would have completely agreed with you 2 short years ago, but did what I have written above. They are now a staple.

Kale is a highly nutritious leaf vegetable. It goes great with mashed potatoes.
