[quote=Anonymous]I suspect it's a matter of shelf space, and opportunity costs. Farmers tend to grow what sells; specialty veggies are often meant for the restaurant business. And grocery stores have a certain amount of space for produce, and some of that will be taken up with the most popular vegetables: carrots, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, etc. That leaves only a small amount of space for more specialty items. Bok choy is regularly available at my local grocery store, as are a variety of leafy greens, including mustard greens (and kale, and chard, and collards). [/quote]
