I read of an incident in Chicago several yrs. ago.
Seems an elderly lady from the South had not been seen for several days around her apt. house.
Sunday morning some of the neighbors noticed a foul smell coming from her apt. and called the police.

They arrived and thinking the worst broke down the door.

What they found was a pot of collard greens cooking on the stove. The elderly lady walked in from church while they were there.

( If you've never smelled collards cooking , you have not missed a thing. They taste great, similar to very mild turnip greens but it's best to cook them outside.)

Reminds me of the first time I cooked collars greens. My husband came home from work and accused me of not cleaning the cats litter box. I informed him that wasn't the litter box it was his dinner.

Yep- it's the sulfur compounds in these things tha ake them smell so bad (although a fair number of folks can't seem to smell this odor at all).

The stuff is good for you, though!
