I know this is not strictly a home-growing question, but does anyone know
why the "sweetheart" or "pointed" cabbages in the supermarkets are suddenly
white instead of green? In the winter, you need to eat your greens, not
whites.

It's all to do with storage. Retailers can keep white cabbage for
weeks while real green cabbage does no last for long. The white
cabbage you see for sale now could have been grown months ago.
