Random Poll: it's leaf time

drawnbyyannan 2021-08-01 00:30:44 UTC #6

There is 100% a correct answer here and it's cabbage, the most versatile leafy green that keeps long in the fridge. You can pickle it for crunch, sautee and caramelize it for sweetness, shred it for salad!

Cabbage is disgusting... and you cannot convince me otherwise. Lettuce comes in all shapes and sizes and is a wonderful, refreshing addition to any sandwich or salad. Spinach is hands down the most versatile and can be incorporated into every meal. Kale, while still a little gross, does well to flesh out a good salad and is chock full of vitamins, same with spinach. And again I say, cabbage kinda gross. Like, I can only really eat it in coleslaw, and even then.

All those leafs are just crunchy water to me, but I went with spinach, because

I like them put into salad, sandwich or whatever tho.

(Except cabbage. Most cabbage dishes are big nope to me.)

Team cabbage, and I'm fairly passionate about this.

it's an excellent poor people food as it's full of vitamins, cheap, and keeps approximately forever
it's versatile as fuck
raw cabbage has that sort of radish-like bite to it (plus the cronch)
excellent vehicle for sauce

No one voted Kale and they are correct.

Team Cabbage all the way.

I am missing the endive option.

Spinach team.

You can eat it raw like a salad,
you can cook it and put it in :
- lasagna
- shepherd's pie
- quiche
- many other recipes I don't think about right now

It goes well with fish, minced meat, poultry meat, cream, cheese...

WELL. SPINACH.

THIS IS A LETTUCE HATE POST

i think the real question is how important the versatility of the leaf is cause you can't do shit with lettuce. cabbage can be made into kimchi, soup, and stir fried. kale can be made also into soup, and chips. and spinach can be stir fried or boiled with sesame oil and seeds for a side dish.

I actually like lettuce in sandwiches and salads but I've done more for lettuce than lettuce has ever done for me. I think if lettuce was an ice cream, it would be vanilla.

Can't believe fuckin' spinch is winning. salty

littlelilylee5683 2021-08-01 20:47:07 UTC #16

So, I used to HATE spinach, but I love it now. I also love cabbage in multiple ways - kimchi and creamy slaw come to mind - but now I can't eat salt or dairy or anything you would put slaw on. And bland cabbage is... meh. I guess it's good in a spring roll. Also, cabbages are too big. I can't eat that much cabbage. Such a waste. Make mini cabbages available (no, a brussel sprout is not a mini cabbage) and maybe I'll reconsider. But I'm still feeling bitter.

Not voting for kale, but side vote for rainbow swiss chard...

I don't know if you're insulting vanilla or lettuce, or both...

I have few regrets

ar-ninetysix 2021-08-01 21:14:19 UTC #18

Where's the option for normal leaves from a tree??

sorible 2021-08-01 21:22:43 UTC #19

both. vanilla is wack

IndigoShirtProd 2021-08-01 22:05:08 UTC #20

I... I... don't agree. Boring sure, but reliable. It's a flavor you can count on.

Azifri 2021-08-01 22:07:58 UTC #21

I dislike them all, but lettuce a bit less, so lettuce.

sorible 2021-08-02 00:43:26 UTC #22

I was joking about vanilla. it's not bad but I don't eat ice cream.

IndigoShirtProd 2021-08-02 01:08:50 UTC #23

Oh, okay. Nah it's fine, not everyone's gonna like and I get why many people don't.

nathanKmcwilliams 2021-08-02 03:07:57 UTC #24

Leaves belong as a visual garnish on steak. Or in a pet rabbit's cage. Those are the only acceptable uses for them.

OMG one person on this forum is a kaleliker.
