ICYMI: Kale Chips Graffiti Is Sweeping The Neighborhood

Image via Food52 on Instagram via GothamistPark Slope is the epicenter of the green smoothie these days. Everyone and their mother is walking around with a shot of wheatgrass or running with a carrot apple ginger kale shake in their hand while
listening to their iPod. And, for the past month and a half, someone who really loves their greens is running around Park Slope tagging
"Kale Chips" on everything. And hey, all that clean living is getting them some media attention on Gothamist and News 12 Brooklyn!

Back in the 1980s, subway cars in New York City were covered in colorful graffiti. Graffiti artists risked their lives to create spectacular murals or just to sign their tags in the secret train station on 93rd Street on the 1 line. Flash forward to 2014 where the city is cleaner and full of more people wearing khakis and talking about grass fed meat. Even graffiti has taken a turn for the health food obsessed.

You have to hand it to this health nut/graffiti artist for getting some sweet P.R. for their non sequitur. I have to hand it to them, this is hilarious. I applaud their transparency. This person is not afraid to express their love for kale, even if it is the crunchy salty oily version. This takes chutzpah. And by the way, if you've never tried kale chips, they are delicious.

Be proud of who you are. If who you are means that you love organic kale chips, by all means, tell the world by tagging a mailbox with that shit.
