Bush's no longer producing canned greens
Advertisements [?]
Okay, scoff if you want -- but I was REALLY disappointed to find out that Bush's canned greens are no longer available. Their kale and turnip greens were to my mind the only canned greens worth a can opener.

Now the only options are "seasoned greens" -- the primary so-called seasoning being SUGAR. Check the cans for yourself. With the "Southern style" greens in particular, the second ingredient besides the greens themselves is SUGAR! Blech!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've tried all the different canned "seasoned" greens and they are beneath wretch-inducing.

Aren't there any canned greens anymore that aren't filled with sugar? I grow some of my own kale and turnips and also freeze some that I cook myself, but I always supplemented my own stock with Bush's canned greens. I grew up eating lots of greens but we NEVER put sugar in our greens. Onions, some kind of pork and a bit of garlic was the usual seasoning, or if fried, bacon and walnuts. No sweeteners.

Does anyone know where I can find sugarless canned greens?
