The idea that kale is edible food.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's much more edible than a lot of other foods. You don't even have to cook it!

I don't get the hate for kale. Never would buy it after decades of reading how horrid it is... Decided one day to try it and found it's actually refreshing and tasty, aside from the health benefits

I don't get the appeal at all. Many other perfectly good leafy vegetables. Eating kale is like accidentally chewing on some flimsy decorative plastic that fell into your meal. No thanks.

Are you joking? It's one of the more flavorful brassicas.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not joking. It turns out that kale actually was predominantly an alternative to decorative plastic before grifters started pitching it as a "super food".
