A cabbage (the Capitata form of Brassica oleracea) is an edible leafy vegetable native to Earth, although it has been known to be cultivated in otherworldly forms.

Cabbage was one of the vegetables grown by Kes in USS Voyager's airponics bay in 2371. (VOY episode: "Elogium")
When the replicators in the mess hall of Voyager had trouble replicating items with high levels of cellulose, Neelix mentioned that it was causing cabbage to be replicated with a yellowish hue. (VOY episode: "Deadlock")
