Cabbage
Cabbage is a vegetables that is in my fridge right now. It is an edible plant, not to be confused with non-edible plants, and it can be very tasty. Common foods that make use of this vegetable are: kimchi, sauerkraut, sourkraut, and cabbage surprise. Perhaps you've seen cabbage at your local grocery store in the produce aisle. I recommend it.
Appearance
Cabbage can be green or it can be "red" which is more of a purple color, but people refer to purple cabbage as "red" cabbage. So, keep that in mind. Cabbages come in many layers, much like lettuce, but in a different way. What is the difference between cabbage and lettuce? I think lettuce is more squeaky. Sometimes cabbages can be longer, like a football (american) but usually they are rounder, like a football (european). I think they both work in dishes because they are both the same vegetable, but in different shapes. I wish other fruits or vegetables came in different shapes. This is why the cabbage is such a great vegetable.

Unfortunately for cabbage fans, cabbage can, and don't continue reading if you are faint of heart, make you gassy. Yup. Farting. Sorry...
In cooking
I like to cut cabbages down into tiny slivers, thinner the better, and add them to stir fries. I think they make for a nice choice of greens along with green pepper and green onions. So green! A lot of cooking YouTubers tell me that you should separate the hard stem of cabbages from the leafy part and cook the hard part first, and that is probably correct, but I am lazy.
Etymology
People say that the word "cabbage" comes from some old word for "head," which is funny because we call them "heads of cabbage." How humorous.
