    I realize the post is a joke, but I have to say to all the serious folks out there...I have quite a few RAW kale salads that are amazing. Oils and marinades tenderize the kale, and I'm fine not to have to share! Best tasting vegetables & fiber, available year round too. Not that I always want a fiber meal, often some cookies & ice cream is all I need.

    I think I just puked in my mouth...

    I have tried this superfood in all it's nutritional splendor. However, I suspect the scrapings from a homeless person's taint would taste better.

    Kale is an acquired taste. But if you love it... then you love it!

    And that's all I got to say about that.

    Om nom nom! *munches on some kale*

    Kale has health benefits. I agree it may not taste great. I juice mine with carrots, apple, spinach...it's all good.

    Simply put, to each their own,, If you like it, great, if not, then that's okay too.

    I've been eating kale since I was a wee lass.
    I find it to be amazing.

    However, it is very bitter and tough unless you know that it should be cooked with some sort of smoked, salty meat, and only harvested freshly after a morning frost has hit it.

    All these paleo/clean eating recipes are ruining kale's reputation.

    ^^ More propaganda from the National Kale Growers Association. Don't listen to them! Raw kale can and will cause severe bodily harm!

    I kept reading about how it was so awesome as kale chips and "OMG totes better than potato chips!" Eleventy!

    Yeah, no. No to infinity and beyond.

    Better than potato chips??? No.

    Someone is delusional, I postulate there is NOTHING better than potato chips. I just ate kale for the first time and gagged. YUCK. I would rather lick Rosie's left foot than eat anymore fracking kale

    I think I just died a little bit from laughter. Seriously, as a Chicagoan who rides the Blue line to work every day (or as I like to call it, a mobile hobo hotel) the idea of taint scrapings as preferable to kale is hilarious...

    I have not met a green leaf yet that I do not like :) Kale is my new best friend!

    Coconut oil is really bad for you too....I mean...we're all so deceived! Whole grains...Corn....Kale...

    We're not getting adequate lard into our diets! Now that is the real concern.
    This is the truth. French fries lost much of their magic when we stopped frying them in lard.
