I'm pretty sure it's a Savoy cabbage. Taste a lot like regular cabbage, but milder. I like them.

Since Savoy Cabbage is a true cabbage, that means it's a member of the Brassica family, so it contains both goitrogens (which interfere with thyroid function) and oxalates (which interfere with calcium absorption and can also cause painful bladder stones). Like the other brassicas, this is probably best only fed occasionally.

It almost looks like the leaves from the movie " Little Shop of Horrors":)
