    while grocery shopping today, i bought a few bags of greens, and yes, also sweet potato. Now, i’m from alaska, so you can’t chalk this up as a ‘southern thing’, its more that it’s cheap and good for you. What i have noticed, though, is that traditional foods in any culture take a certain ammount of preparation, both time and knowledge. So someone who says that they don’t like a given food may not have had it cooked right, or even taken the time to try it in the first place. if there is a stigma, it might also be that greens are by various turns considered either ‘poor ‘ food or ‘healthy’ food, both reasons that i’ve heard for not wanting to eat them.
