Okay, it's nutritious as fuck, but it tastes like bitter asshole. We got plenty of tasty ass leafy greens that are better.

Keep eating your kale, but let's end this charade of pretending to enjoy it SO MUCH to appear super healthy or some shit.

I like rocket/arugula, I make a mean roast beef sandwich with it.

Treat kale like collards. It’s a bitter green you have to cook for a while to make good.
Anyone who eats it raw is a weirdo.

So it sounds like you actually just enjoy the taste of butter, garlic, and peppers. Which makes sense. Without hiding behind other flavors, do you really actually enjoy the taste of unaltered kale?

I made pesto with kale that was decent.
So what if it doesn't taste like a hamburger or fried chicken it's good for you and not everything can be an indulgence.

I remember getting kale from walmart as a living plant for a science project in late elementary. I though it was pronounced kahlay because I was a dumb kid. My dad took me shopping, and the woman in front of us asked about what we were doing. My dad said we were growing kahlay for a science project and the lady looked at him and said, "You mean kale?" I've gotten a lot of dirty looks from my dad, but nothing compared to that. You were married to my mom at the time anyway, don't look at me mofo

Cut out the center stem, chop up the leaf, and let it sit in some hot water+vinegar for a few minutes before eating or cooking. Reduces the bitterness.

I legit like kale so long as it's not frozen at any point. Once it's been frozen, kale tastes disgustingly sweet and i hate it.

You use it the same way in German. Grünkohl is the vegetable but also a specific dish as there's basically just a single way of preparation. Same dish as Dutch boerenkool but otjer sausages and meats.

But collards are terrible. They're like leather made out of plants, and taste like shit to boot. Kale is infinitely superior. Though turnip and mustard are the patrician's greens.

That's the key. Mix kale with collards and turnip greens. Add some tater's and a salty meal (hamhocks, smoked porkchops).
Serve with Maggi, wah-fuckin-lah.

That's your fault if you're not cooking and seasoning it right.
It's not great if it's just steamed and plain, but can be made pretty good if it's sauteed with some olive oil, garlic, worcestershire, etc
