Hey, I know that. I never get through a whole cabbage. That is the
problem with buying all the separate ingredients you would want for
a salad. Geez, talk about rotting produce, that's what the salad
bar is good for, I can get 'some' of certain ingredients, not a whole
bunch I will wind up throwing out.

But even I can get through more than ONE leaf of cabbage. Especially
as I usually throw out the outer leaves, they're scruffy.

Hey, go for it. (laugh) Wonder what the produce manager will think
of that. Report back.
