This is something you don't hear much about in Stockholm yet, so take note Swedish hipsters: After the cult of coffee and your obsession with wheat grass, sour dough bread and micro brewed beer, you will move on to:
KALE.
Kale kale kale, it's everywhere here.
It is kind of tasty, especially cooked, but am still surprised at how seriously people treat this leafy green.
Yesterday I was waiting in the cinema lobby while my kids watched a movie. A woman came late to the screening and was stopped by a guard who told her to leave her bag outside.
She got really upset.
"It's kale. Just kale. It's not like I'm going to be sitting at the movies munching on kale. "
The guard kept his calm.
"You're going to have to leave your kale with me. "
He got exactly what he asked for and, as a bonus, a hissing "what ever".
So now you know. Don't try to combine superfoods with superheroes. At least not in Brooklyn.

Imagine trying to make a vegetarian dish and in the end, your main source of consolation is Bacon.
