[quote=ā€œFrank Zappaā€]

This is a song about vegetables
They keep you regular,
Theyā€™re real good for you.

Call any vegetable

Call it by name

Call one today

When you get off the train

Call any vegetable And the chances are good
That the vegetable will respond to you

(Some people donā€™t go for prunesā€¦I
donā€™t know, Iā€™ve always found that if theyā€¦)

Call any vegetable

Pick up your phone

Think of a vegetable

Lonely at home

Call any vegetable And the chances are good
That a vegetable will respond to you

Rutabaga, Rutabaga,
Rutabaga, Rutabaga,
Rutabay-y-y-yā€¦

(A prune isnā€™t really a vegetableā€¦
CABBAGE is a vegetableā€¦)

No one will know
If you donā€™t want to let them know
No one will know
'Less itā€™s you that might tell 'em so

Call and theyā€™ll come to you
Covered with dew
Vegetables dream Of responding to you

Standing there shiny and proud by your side
Holding your hand while the neighbors decide
Why is a vegetable something to hide?

A lot of people donā€™t bother about their
friends in the vegetable kingdom. They
think: Oh, ah, what can I say? What can
a person like myself say to a vegetable?
But the answer is simple, my friends:
Just call, and tell them how you feel
about muffinsā€¦pumpkinsā€¦wax
paperā€¦Caledonia, Mahoganies, elbows
ā€¦and green things in generalā€¦and
soon, a new rapportā€¦you and your
new little green and yellow buddies,
Grooving togetherā€¦Oh no! Maintaining
your coolness together! Worshipping
together in the church of your
choiceā€¦(only in Americaā€¦)
Ah ahha ahha aahha

Call any vegetable Call it by name
Ah you gotta call one today
When you get off the train

Call any vegetable
And the chances are good
WOW! That the vegetable will RESPOND to you!

Oh no! Can you see them responding? The
pumpkin is breathing hardā€¦h-h-h-h
h-h-h-H-H-H-H-H-H-H - H - HHHHHHHHHHHH!

How about field greens? and green leafy things:

Romaine lettuce
Raddichio
Arugula
water cress
Endive
Cabbage
Kale
Collards
etc.

[quote]Quick Factsā€¦
Leafy vegetables contain more vitamins and minerals and fewer calories than any other vegetables.
They are ideal for summer lunches when heat dulls the appetite and the desire to cook.
Leafy vegetables do well under cool conditions and can be eaten at any stage of maturity, which makes them ideal for regions with a short growing season.
With proper selection, culture and storage, leafy vegetables can be available most of the year
