You've obviously never had a dutch meal then ;)
Kale is pretty everyday here. chip it, mash it with boiled potatoes and serve with sausage or bacon. Really hits the spot in winter.
speaking of us, you could've mentioned that we were the ones who turned carrots orange! Go team!

Seaweed? I think you're confusing it with kelp... Also, America's love for sushi seems to indicate that in general, yanks have no problem with seaweed :p

Still, no need to be so US-centric. just because it's not common in the states doesn't mean it's not an everyday food in another part of the world.

i'm not "yank" and i might have confused seeweed for kelp .but it pretty much the same. .and sushi isn't as popular as you might think here in the US.. not compared to Japan at least not that I know off.. i think there's a popular american version of it in California
