When it comes to leafy greens, there few that are as divisive as spinach. This stereotypically shunned lettuce substitute has gotten a bad wrap. I think it’s time to drop the act…
Most of us don’t actually mind spinach (myself included), and this Fresh Spinach Day (not to be confused with Nation Spinach Day which is March 26), let’s own it.
Maybe at one point, as a child, some of us didn’t love the taste of cooked spinach (not me…I’ve always loved the stuff…true story), but the time for pretending is over.
Let’s stop the spinach shaming. It’s good and good for us (and fabulous for summer salads and smoothies). Say it loud and make Popeye proud: You love spinach!
So, celebrate the day with this fabulous green, and rest up, tomorrow’s National Ice Cream Day…
…bi-daily smile…
