We had our first greens from the garden tonight; fresh young collards!
The Swiss chard will be the next greens. They get cooked with olive oil
and browned garlic. And no fear of e-coli or toxic poisons on any of it.


Why would collards have E-coli?


Why? The same reason other greens get contaminated with that bacteria.
