The iron-rich but bitter leafy green has become the latest so-called superfood among health-conscious Americans, found in salads as a side dish and even in chip form. But now those who love the trendy veggie are in for price increases, according to reports.

This is not the first setback for kale — a pest damaged the US crop in April.
