It isn't common in the US, but I was lucky enough to grow up with it as a staple in my dad's garden. Funny thing, our family referred to it by its Polish name, so I didn't know the English word for it until I was a teenager.

It's really common in Eastern Europe, but you need to get it fresh (it doesn't feel well on a market shelf for more than a few hours) or frozen. So if there's no industry around it you either have it in your garden or don't have it
