New Raw Swiss Chard?
Well, I've munched a few leaves that way, but I wouldn't make a meal of it.

I'd steam the bastards. You can use them in recipes that call for spinach (a lot less mushy and a lot less sour, but compatible).

New Because it's bad for you or because you don't like it?
I asked above since I was a bit worried that I would not get the same magnesium level unless I cooked it. I prefer my veggies raw.

I'm eating a bowl of it for breakfast right now.

Also, I think it's really pretty. Perfectly formed large leaves on a colorful red stalk.
