I read somewhere that eating raw cabbage means your body has to work extra hard to digest it. Point: don't eat cooked cabbage, eat raw cabbage.

In fact I read eating raw cabbage takes as much energy to digest as it gives you in calories. I don't have a link at hand but I remember clear as day that I read this somewhere.

I'm sorry, but that's simply not true. Technically, ice water consumes calories, but even raw celery only takes 8% of its caloric content to digest; you should research thermic effect if you're interested to know more.
