Yes we love cabbage. All varieties, including pickled red cabbage.

We really like kale. I buy the whole leaves as it's easy to take the centre stalks out and cut the leaves across.
It's nice just steamed, or added to a curry towards the end of cooking instead of spinach as it's more robust and doesn't go soggy.

I love cabbage, steamed and tossed in butter with a grating of nutmeg.

DH and I, older son and younger daughter, all absolutely adore ALL types of cabbage, cooked various ways! My new favourite way to cook is sliced and stir fried with bacon or if red cabbage stir fried with thinly sliced red apples and red onions, Yom Yom Yom!

Ha, I thought that’d get some of you going!

It was actually a comment I saw on Mumsnet not long ago. Glad to say most of the replies were of the ‘Lots of us!’ variety.
How about all you GNers?

We like it, though I did find out the other day that dh hadn’t a clue what ‘spring greens’ (on the list) were.
He came back with a bag of salad leaves. 😂
Obviously I should have added CABBAGE!
