Topic: Is this a Chinese cabbage or a weed?

[genlistlass]

I planted various Chinese stir fry vegetables. The pak choi is recognisable but there is this strange cabbage thing.

It's pale-ish green, about a foot across, floppy centre and has small SPIKES on the underside of the leaf ribs.

Those spikes worry me, what will they do to my stomach? Do I have to cook it well and not eat it raw???

Chinese cabbage has spikey growth, but will need a picture.  ;D ;D ;D
