Cauliflower is a member of the cruciferous vegetable family, which includes cabbage, kale, turnips, mustard greens, radishes, arugula and broccoli. The word cauliflower comes from the Latin caulis (stalk) and floris (flower), meaning "cabbage flower," according to the University of Arizona.
Cauliflower originated in Asia Minor from wild cabbage, which resembled collard greens or kale, according to the George Mateljan Foundation's World�s Healthiest Foods website. Over the millennia, it went through many changes, and appeared in Turkey and Italy around 600 B.C. The Romans grew cauliflower.
