Mention “Liberian Cabbage” and many people may think you’re referring to a specific kind of cabbage grown in Liberia. Mention “Liberian Cabbage” to someone from Liberia, and odds are they’ll tell you something different. In Liberia, we try Cabbage. It is made with the well-known vegetable, but it is so much more fun to eat than ordinary cabbage 😊
