Kale
Kale (), or leaf cabbage, belongs to a group of cabbage (''Brassica oleracea'') cultivars grown for their edible leaves, although some are used as ornamentals. Kale plants have green or purple leaves, and the central leaves do not form a head (as with headed cabbage). Kales are considered to be closer to wild cabbage than most of the many domesticated forms of ''Brassica oleracea''. Etymology ''Kale'' originates from Northern Middle English ''cale'' (compare Scots ''kail'' and German ''Kohl'') for various cabbages. The ultimate origin is Latin ''caulis'' 'cabbage'. History Kale originated in the eastern Mediterranean and Anatolia, where it was cultivated for food beginning by 2000 BCE at the latest. Curly-leaved varieties of cabbage already existed along with flat-leaved varieties in Greece in the 4th century BC. These forms, which were referred to by the Romans as Sabellian kale, are considered to be the ancestors of modern kales. The earliest record of cabbages in w ...

Bowen's Kale
Bowen's Kale was a reference material produced by British chemist Humphry Bowen and used for the calibration of early scientific instruments intended to measure trace elements during the 1960s. With Peter Cawse, Bowen grew, dried, and crushed a large amount of marrow-stem kale (''Brassica oleracea'' var. ''medullosa'') into of a homogeneous and stable powder in 1960 that was subsequently freely distributed to researchers around the world for over two decades. This was probably the first successful example of such a ''de facto'' standard. Bowen's Kale stimulated preparation of further materials by other organizations for similar use.

Kale (mythology)
Kale ( grc, Καλη, 'Beauty') or Cale; Kalleis ( el, Καλλεις, Calleis), in ancient Greek religion, was one of the Charites (Graces). daughters of Zeus (Jupiter). Cale is the spouse of Hephaestus according to some authors (although most have Aphrodite play that role). Cale was also known as Charis and Aglaea. Mythology The name Cale in this passage has led some to conclude that Homer mentions two Charites, Pasithea and Cale, which seems to be a forced separation of three words: ''Pasi thea cale'', meaning ‘the goddess who is beautiful to all men’. Sostratus ( Eustath. ad Hom. p. 1665) relates that Aphrodite and the three Charites, Pasithea, Cale and Euphrosyne, disputed about their beauty with one another, and when Teiresias awarded the prize to Cale he was changed by Aphrodite into an old woman, but Cale rewarded him with a beautiful head of hair and took him to Crete Crete ( el, Κρήτη, translit=, Modern: , Ancient: ) is the largest and most popu ...
