Knock on wood, but in my part of the western world, where we are getting a snow storm right now, I in all my 50 + years (although I see the occasional grasshopper jump away when I mow the lawn, and there is a pesky cricket chirping away in the old barn) I have never seen even one locust! I must have the privileged life.
I don’t understand the hatred of kale. It’s good stuff. I don’t select it for its “nutritional value”. I just eat an array of foods and let the nutrients work themselves out. Too bad about all the other crops they had, tho.
Well, I guess even a plague of locusts have a somewhat discerning taste. Even so, I do not hate kale, but I would not cry if I had to do without it. What I hate about it is the hipster image that has been placed on it.
This can’t be an old strip, right? Cause until a couple of years ago, almost none of us had even heard of kale. Therefore, I can’t imagine kale being used in a strip decades ago.

Locusts are a good source of protein. That’s a caveman win-win.

If you mix kale with coconut butter, it makes it easier to scrape into the garbage . . .

What is wrong with kale? Trader Joe’s used to carry a kale and spinach pie that was delicious.

Kale is one of the ugliest greens out there, but it tastes good. My cousin loves it.

Put it in a pot of boiling water until the water turns dark green. Drain the water off. Scrape what’s left in the pot into the compost pile.
