Cabbage

The cabbage (Brassica oleracea) is a type of plant species that is seen in multiple Hungarian Folk Tales episodes. 
== Description ==
Due to its substantial food reserves that are kept in its leaves throughout the winter, B. oleracea has established itself as a significant human food crop plant. It is abundant in important nutrients, such as vitamin C. It has been bred into a variety of cultivars, some of which are hardly distinguishable as belonging to the same genus, let alone species, including cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, collards, and kale. 
=== Mythology ===
The ancient peoples of Greece loved and adored cabbage and invoked Zeus, the king of all the gods, to tell of its origin. According to one legend, Zeus perspired from trying to reconcile two contradictory oracles and from a drop of his heavenly perspiration, a cabbage magically appeared.
