Kalemageddon Hits Northeast

Code green! Code green! NYC (and the Northeast in general) is officially on high alert!

Due to the blizzard? Sure, there’s that. But there’s also a KALE SHORTAGE!!!

We took a look at our database and found that January in general appears to be a strong kale month year after year. It was even served at the Super Bowl last year, so it should be of no surprise that people are going crazy for kale.

It was all fun and games when everyone was being a bit silly about the run on kale.
