Energy content[edit]

Our article says that 100 g of cabbage gives 25 kcal, and contains 3.2 g sugars, 2.5 g "dietary fiber", 0.1 g fat, and 1.28 g protein. But how does that give 25 kcal? Using the standard 4 Cal/g for carbohydrates and proteein and 9 for fat, we get only 19 Cal. The "fiber" doesn't count. If we include the "fiber" as carbohydrate, we get 29 Calories. Eric Kvaalen (talk) 12:46, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

We don't calculate the values in the nutrition table but rather list them from the USDA database, here, where the energy level of 25 kcal is given. Zefr (talk) 15:09, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cabbage vs Savoy[edit]

I assume that the intention was to depict white cabbage but the depiction is of a savoy. This may be confusing when "cabbage" per-se refers to white cabbage 2a02:908:1657:a860:1049:34bb:c886:3c07 (talk) 15:20, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hydrogen Sulfide?![edit]

overcooked cabbage does NOT emit hydrogen sulfide. the linked article mentions NOTHING about cabbage at all, or hydrogen sulfide. pls remove. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8001:6B00:E6:0:0:0:8F8 (talk) 01:25, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cabbage in culture[edit]

Could there be a section about cabbage in culture? One example is the Liz Truss cabbage. 129.194.91.158 (talk) 11:16, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the article is about culture, and it was the Liz Truss lettuce! Graham Beards (talk) 16:42, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
