What does CHARD mean in Scrabble?
noun
A leafy vegetable with thick stalks, related to beet.
The plant is a beet bred for its leaves instead of its root, and the stalks are the interesting part of chard: white in the ordinary sort, and yellow, pink or red in the kind sold to be looked at. Cooks treat the two halves as separate vegetables, since the stalk takes twice as long as the leaf.
