This photo taken Aug. 13, 2009 shows Bok choy. Bok choy is a cool weather vegetable that matures quickly -- about two months -- although you don't have to wait that long to eat it. You can start peeling its outer leaves while the heart continues to grow. Bok choy has been described as two vegetables in one: the leaves cook up like spinach while the ribs are similar to asparagus. It has a mild taste and often is used in recipes to tone down stronger flavors. (AP Photo/Dean Fosdick)
