Salad green crossword clue
63 Across · WSJ Crossword, August 19, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Salad green” is KALE. It appears as 63 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 19, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Thumbs Down” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 14, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with K and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
