The former president of grocery store chain Trader Joe's is hoping to make healthy food more accessible to the working poor by opening a store and restaurant that sells expired food, according to Fox News.

Doug Rauch's endeavor is called The Daily Table and will open in Dorchester, Mass. come May.

My Whole Foods has organic collards all of the time, I have never looked for collard greens only because I would not know what to do with them!

The canned Collard greens that I buy are very bitter. The canned Turnip greens are very sweet, though I think that is because of added sugar :-(

But, if I mix them 50:50 then they come out great :-)
