    A ryvita? Inedible without a huge wedge of butter.

    Ryvita are edible? I thought they were some sort of cladding.

    I think mixing it with bacon is technically illegal Molls. If not, it bloody well should be

    You need to sit and have a think about what it is you’ve just suggested

    I’m not angry Molls. I’m disappointed

    I think they’re heat shielding for shuttles, they are however edible.

    Now you hang on just a minute here. Porridge? You put butter on porridge?

    They put butter in coffee (bulletproof coffee), so why not?

    It’s cow/sheep food.

    Indeed – feed it to the cow/sheep, then eat same. Not a quick process, but VERY tasty.

    Fry it in butter. Or juice it.

    If frying in butter; add bacon. If juicing; add apples.

    What is the point of kale again?

    I think we’ve established that nobody actually likes kale.

    This.

    I actually eat quite a lot of it. But that’s because I’ve heard it’s good for me, but like most things that are good for me: it tastes rubbish. However, kale is good cos it’s easy to get into ye. You can juice three bags of kale and you’ve got about three inches of dark green juice. Add a couple of apples and you can’t even taste the beastly stuff.

    Boring answer, I’ll have to direct my sarcasm on another topic…

    I enjoy tossing some kale (and frozen peas) into the pan of boiling pasta.

    It stops the pasta from bubbling over the sides of the pan

    And when I transfer the pasta to an oven dish to be gently dried out in the oven, then the added veg stops the pasta from drying out unevenly

    I’ve used my face as a brake on a number of occasions so the sharpness of the kale appeals the few remaining olfactory sensors.

    My favourite is tossed in olive oil and sea salt then roasted for 10 minutes at 200 degress

    Then grate parmesan over it.

    We used to plant it as a cover crop for the pheasants on the shooting estate I worked on.
    I spent one summer pulling up a quarter of an acre by hand, my then bosses bullshit job of the month to keep myself and the other under keeper busy while he was on holiday 🙄

    The pheasants seemed to like it to hide in same for Quinoa the pheasants like the seeds.

    I don’t know what they use now but we used to sow acres of the stuff for very little money so some one is making a good killing on this stuff!

    It grows well in the UK and I think it can be harvested in winter, so it’s local winter veg that has low food miles and is hence good for the environment.

    Solar panels are good for the environment

    I’m not going to eat them either

    True, but Cavolo Nero is almost as tasty as Sprouts.

    Father-in-law (farmer) put an acre to kale last winter to see how it would sell locally (interestingly, quite well), which meant that we would be given a couple of pounds of the stuff most days. Seemed to be eating kale for the entire winter!

    Kale curry, and kale and blue cheese fritters were surprisingly good (kale curry was the first solid food our 1-year-old had – he really liked it), but after a couple of months I had had enough. Would be quite happy never to eat it ever again.
