@cornbreadaraa: Come correct when you speak on our food. Just because collard greens are cooked differently in African cuisines doesn’t mean the way Black Americans cook them is wrong. You can tell people are jumping to conclusions and have never actually tried our collard greens…they’re not soggy, and the “watery” part is pot liquor, which is full of flavor. #soulfood #collardgreens #africanamerican #africanamericanculture #soulaan

Collard greens are a nutrient rich superfood about as nutrient rich as kale. If they don’t want to eat it that’s really fine by me I don’t need the prices on collard greens going up when other people decide it’s the next superfood trend

I feel like some people make up this hypothetical beef with Africans and sow division among black communities cause this one doesn’t even make sense. I can speak for west Africa but we have many dishes that are stewed greens aka “soggy” so I don’t get why they would not get collard greens all of a sudden?

Honestly, if they don't like it, they don't have to eat it. More for me! I got some greens I'm about to warm up for lunch today! Finna make some cabbage later this week too.

Collard greens are a treat in my household.🤗 We usually only eat them on holidays. They're so flavorful and good!😋 I honestly don't care that they don't like our greens. I'm sure I probably don't care for some of their dishes. And that's okay.

I can’t even imagine eating dry collard greens. Before my granny cleans her greens some of them are literally so hard she can’t break the stems with her hands anymore, who would just wanna eat that without any type of moisture added
