The article this page links to (http://whatscookingamerica.net/Vegetables/BroccoliRaab.htm) says that Rapini is the same thing as Chinese broccoli, which has its own page here on wikipedia and neither mentions the other. Anyone know if they really are the same vegetable, and if so, why the pages aren't combined?

The picture at Chinese Broccoli is definitely not broccoli raab, so I suspect that article at whatscookingamerica has some errors in it. A picture in this article would help. Spalding 03:19, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] rapini is not broccoli raab or broccoli rabe

Acc to GRIN, rapini is indeed the vegetable you describe, but broccoli raab (or broccoli rape as it's called in my part of the USA) is not this vegetable, as claimed in first paragraph. GRIN identifies that vegetable as Brassica ruvo and separates it from rapini. Can you clarify? NaySay 18:40, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
