There is a similar looking type of salad that is often eaten in Germany.

Purple cabbage. And it does look similar

Its eaten like salad though.

We do have actually purple cabbage but its usually eaten hot and looks different.

There are some dishes with it where its eaten cold, but it makes the cabbage usually more purple beyond it being mistaken for something else also due to the texture. Many Döner stores put it in the Döner dishes cold as well, tastes great.

Love cabbage. Sauerkraut based, high on vitamins.

Ah, here in the US it's often used as a garnish to add a pop of color

XD thats some use of it in the Premium Dining here as well, but i think it tastes too good to just eat it in small quantities for the color, its healthy and tastes great when done right.

They call us Krauts for a reason XD

“Where’s the green stuff?”

“We got this purple thing”

“Excellent. Carry on”
