Spinach on its own, romaine in salads. Sometimes I get a craving for kale that nothing else can hit, though.

>> No.14631466

Iceberg.
The others are bitter / stemmy / fiberous.
Unfortunately supermarket restocking is slack enough that a head of Iceberg will only last a week after hitting the shelves in the absolute best case, so I frequently buy other kinds depending on whats freshest.

A lot of these nutrients cannot be absorbed by the human body properly what you see in this chart is not what your getting.
And animal products with significantly more actually absorbable nutrients (Like liver for example) taste much better and are more easily digested by the human body.

Chew you food and they can be, faggot.

>> No.14631968

>>14631930
No they cannot be no matter how well it is chewed
You do not understand antinutriant's
It is a way in which plants defend themselves
That blocks your body's absorption of nutrients
Spinach kale chard broccoli cauliflower beets beans basically most plants are rich in them

They all have their culinary place except kale lmao it's just utter trash which I can't believe became a trend

Who cares if it's packed with nutrients? Just eat a balanced diet and you won't be deficient

They're all great in different recipes, but I think romaine has the best flavor overall. Spinach is a close #2.
