Is it cavalo nero or is it not dark enough for that?

Uni I have curly kale growing and I have had it in a smoothie with Banana, apple,a bit of honey if you like sweet.  whatever I have going for the day, usually i combine it with a banana as it is strong tasting, but it is supposedly a super food.
