Do You Like Collard Greens?

i do like greens, mustard & turnip greens to. i don't want them real often & all i want w/them is deviled eggs & corn bread. my hillbilly is showinh, huh? i'm proud to be one.

My mother used to cook up the best greens. I love greens, cornbread, fresh tomatoes, fried squash or okra....oh man....this is making me so hungry for some fresh vegetables. I never could cook the green up as good as my mother could so I never get any to fix any longer. Enjoy your greens, eat some for me please. hahaha

I absolutely love collard greens. I grew up in North Carolina and the New Year's Day tradition in my hometown was to eat collard greens and black-eyed peas. Supposedly if one at collard greens on New years day, they would never be totally broke (financially) during the coming year. I have always had collard on New Year's Day! This year however, I will be traveling to my oldest son's home for New Years, and I can tell you with certainty that there will be no collards.

Sorry my dear myLot friend I have not only never eaten collards buy I have no idea what they even are.

Hi Chevee, What is Collard Greens, is it type of lettuce or cabbage? don't think I have had it and we don't have a vegatable garden but I have a little herb garden. Hugs. Tamara

I have not any collards greens. However, I heard that it belongs to the cabage family and cooked like other greens. Do not know if it is right.

I don't think I have ever eaten collard greens. How do they compare to spinach. I like spinach a lot and I use it for a lot of things. I notice the stores have canned collard greens, I do not remember seeing them before this year. I am sure they are healthy. I hope you enjoy them a lot, and maybe I should wish you company for tomorrow.

i love collard green when they are cooked right boiled down real good and season where they melt in your mouth.

I love any kind of greens. Collard and mustard are my favorites. I can live without spinach. I will eat it though. I get these huge cans of southern style greens at the dollar store and I can eat it all by myself.

I LOVE collards!! They're part of my favorite meal. I love collards with turnips mixed in. Collards are just about my favorite food, but I don't like turnip greens, kale, mustard greens -- they taste gritty to me, and more bitter. But collards, especially with the turnips cooked in -- delicious. All this talk about collards, black eyed peas, okra, cornbread! I'm getting so hungry! I'll have collards and turnips for Christmas dinner. I don't usually make them with fat back anymore, for health. But I add chicken broth and sometimes if I have it, I'll put in some cubed ham - it's lean. It ends up tasting really good, even without the fat back.

i love most vegetables but to be honest this is not one i have tried. not really sure why. and if i did buy them i am not sure how i would fix them to eat anyway. i know alot of people like them and say they are really good. i guess i will just have to try them and see for myself.

i love them but as i spent many years in the deep south we always have greens and black eyed peas with our ham on new years day not Christmas they are supposed to bring you luck in the new year and I need all the luck I can get!LOL

OMG, I love some collards. I was raised in the South and my grandparents had a big garden and they grew all types of vegetables. I too miss those good old days. My spouse and I are from the same hometown and my spouse loves them just as much as I do if not more. However I do not cook them often because I do not like to clean and cut them up, so I do not eat the fresh ones that often. I normally eat the ones in the cans. I have found them to be just as good. There a two brands that I use and they taste just as good as the fresh ones.

Not at all. I've tried them, but they're just not for me. I would rather eat spinach.

Oh I love me some collard greens. Never ate them until I visited a soul food restaurant. They were out of this world! Some places where I have eaten greens have added too much sugar... bleah. I prefer it with ham hocks rather than neckbones, and definitely cooked with bacon fat. Yum! But, as with most southern food, you should have a good cardiologist on hand.

I never knew what they were until I moved to the South. I grew up in the New Mexico, Colorado area. At first I wanted to puke at the sight and smell of them. One day, I decided, hell, what have I got to loose? So, I ate them and feel in love! I moved back to Colorado, and when collards came up in a discussion, no one knew what they were! I was shocked, but remembered I was once in their boat. Anyways, they're oddly delicious, and I'm not a veggie person.
