Tried kale and found it too bitter tasting for my liking :stop::***:
Shame as it is supposed to be a new super food ?

I'm the same, I can't stand any green plant stuff.

However since getting a nutribullet I've been knocking it back, over a kilo a week along with other greens like watercress, spinach and rocket, with handful of other ingredients to mask the flavour its been pretty simple and enjoyable as well as healthy.
Something I thought I'd never say:woot:

Kale is yummy, especially sauteed in butter or bacon fat! :)

It`s funny but I remember that when I was a kid kale`s most common use was as cattle feed, now it`s trendy and a superfood apparently.

who can't stand the stuff either - probably because the times I've eaten it, it's been "mature" and full of spikey fibrous veins...:D
