: There are foods we know for usre that are good and foods we know for sure that are bad, there are also foods (such as Kale) that are questionable.

: When in doubt as to what to make staple food vs. occasional food, always err on the side of caution and stick with the "Big Four" (collards, dandelion, mustard and turnip).

Kale and collards are merely different varieties of the same *species* of plant, Brassica oleracea. Veterinarian and nutrition specialist Susan Donoghue addresses the common misconception that kale is "questionable" in some way in this article from MK's site.
