Mustard greens aren't they? A neighbour marinates them in coca cola for
an hour or so then drains and cooks them. There not bad, not completely
to my taste but i could see how a person would like them, she does her
ham the same way with the cola but for a longer period 24 hours or so
and that is just superb.

Especially when she serves it with from scratch corn bread made with
bacon grease iirc and black eyed peas.
