I think that is funny because spinach makes my colon very upset.

Avril, it's all in the preparation. My favorite is spaghetti primavera, spinach, garlic, olive oil and raw tomato.

Spinach is great stuff, until there's an e Coli scare!

Tip for anyone who suffers with stomach problems when eating fruits or vegetables - EAT MORE! Your body requires fresh stuff EVERY DAY to funchion properly. Eating processed foods, fast foods, high-calorie stuff and other garbage makes the colon and bowels lazy, unable to process REAL foods - like fruits and vegetables, AND can cause all kinds of CANCERS!

EAT WELL People!

I love spinach!!! I think it has gotten a bad rap. If more people would give it a try they would like it. Hey! It's good for you!
