far superior to Spinach or any of the 
other greens, and has a delicious fla- 
vor all its own, slightly and agree- 
ably pungent with a Mustard taste 
when served hot, and when eaten 
raw, the flavor somewhat resembling’ 
raw Turnips. Tastygreen has small 
thin roots, about two inches long, 
and large oblong shaped leaves, rich 
dark green color; with a narrow 
white center rib. The leaves, stem 
and all, are prepared for table use
