Arggh... one of my pet peeves is how almost every store throws my favorite part of celery away (and the best part of coriander, and the best part of turnips and the best part of ... Why oh why do they do it?)!

I don't know about the nutrient value of the leaves but my body seems to think they are the good part. I think it is okay to consume raw and juiced.

There is also "chinese celery" which has more leaves than stalk, and celeriac tops (I suspect it is the same thing as "chinese celery"winking smiley. They are... well, celery-like (bitter and tingly).
