Cabbage is edible, kale is not. There is an Irish dish which is mostly 
mashed potatoes and cabbage. I've seen recipes that use kale but I have a 
feeling it's a translation problem with 'col'.

There is a very similar German recipe, Rotkohl.  Warning: I think the 
vinegar acts as sort of a mordant and you tend to wind up with purple 
teeth. Also, in contact with iron utensils it sometimes develops an 
alarming shade of green but it's only the anthocyanin reacting to the pH.
