Am I wrong for wanting to eat arugula right out of the bag? with nothing on it, even?
because all of a sudden, I have a craving for salad ( yes, yes....I've been drinking, no need to ask ) and there is no lettuce or cucumbers or tomatoes in the house. There is, however a bag of arugula in the fridge that I have been munching on ( sprinkled with a touch of cider vinegar ). I know I said NOTHING, but I'm not sure cider vinegar counts here.

BTW...I LOVE this stuff!!!!

1. Arugula with cider vinegar is salad. Good for ya, so go ahead and eat all you want.
I love arugula. It's the base of my beet, corn and roasted red pepper salad this evening.

3. Someone else who likes beets, too?
Who sent you to steal my heart? I LOVE beets, and could really go for some of those right now

Sadly, not many people share my enthusiasm

5. When you get some beets, pair them with arugula. I promise that you'll love it.
Beets are really good vegetables -- we're among the lucky who like them.

6. A fascinating find there...thanks for the link!
My aunt always made pickled eggs and pickled beets....I used to love them as a kid, and I still do!

Glad to know that they are good for you, too!!!
