Today I discovered kale! Why did nobody tell me about it before?

It is indeed a great food. We both love it too. It is especially good if you are low on calcium or if you are exercising a lot. Furthermore it is a great anti-inflammatory food and I find it helps me a lot when I get stressed. Overactive stomach acids you see... If you are going to use it in a stir-fry (which I suggest, ts great!), boil some water first, throw the kale leaves (no stems) in for a few seconds then drain. Quickly cool it down with cold water and then press the leaves into a sort of loaf shape. It will be easy to cut it into strips. The reason for the boiling water is that it makes the leaves a little softer and takes away a little of the tartness. Don't boil too long or you will lose some of the good stuff in it.

Haha, I'm going through the phase right now. I didn't even like sausage when I was an omnivore.

Thanks for the tip. My stomach gets unhappy with stress too so anti-inflammatory foods are always good. I have some left so I'll try stir-frying it tonight.

I'm not entirely sure you can count something you didn't swallow as breakfast, firestorm! (at least, I am guessing you didn't swallow your chewing gum?)

According to this you eat 75% of your chewing gum so it was quite a nourishing meal
I admittedly skip breakfast sometimes as it allows me to do things (physical like carry bags of shopping from Tesco) without it having an effect on my glucose levels, but I make up for it with Lunch/Dinner - hence the pnb cups and trifle!

Nope sorry, it was a very thoughtful gift from friends in Belgium. It doesn't really taste like peanut butter, so perhaps if you could try crushing up the Lotus biscuits with a little bit of oil, like you would if you were making nut butter.

My family actually originates from Ireland (hundreds of years ago)
