- chou laitue. en: salad savoy. Ce chou est surtout connu dans le commerce sous les noms de salade Savoie et de laitue Savoie. Le chou laitue est un légume nouveau qui est un proche parent du chou décoratif et du chou frisé. Boivin Gilles, 1992. Lexique des légumes. Lexique français-anglais-latin. Québec, Les Publications du Québec. (Cahiers de l'Office de la langue française).
- This example shows that ornamental kales can also be eaten. I ignore whether this 'new' vegetable has survived. MC
