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.

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