I take it you don't watch Chinese Westerns.

Nevertheless, _bok choy_ can be eaten raw but rarely is, it is usually
used, stem and greens, as a stir fry ingredient. It is fairly
tasteless but absorbs sauce flavors well. Baby bok choy is best. It
resembles celery but is, I believe, in the cabbage family.
