Cabbage is one of the oldest vegetables in Europe. The ancient Greeks adored the smell of cooked cabbage. Romans thought that it was good for you (which it is) but they also thought that eating it before a party would stave off drunkenness (which it doesn't).
Cabbage cultivars can be found that produce red, purple as well as green heads.
