Thanks for the reminder about collard greens (and to Gabby98 for the book lead too). We live beside a beach here in New Zealand with very sandy soil and struggle to get brassicas (including the Chinese ones ) growing well. Kale is the only exception found so far and it grows fine, but I had not considered trying collards which are also hardy but are very rarely seen over here. So have ordered some seed today to see how they go.
Some time ago a Southern acquaintance gave me her grandma's cornbread recipe too, so you have rekindled my interest in doing that again too
