Some of my kale has white spots. Is it edible? I don't know if it's good to eat. The kale is ready to harvest

This could be white rust of crucifers and Kale is also attached by it. The fungus that causes is Albugo candida. To confirm it is necessary to see if these are pustules and the mature one would have white powder which are spores of the fungus. But the answer given is correct, one can not advice to eat with the level of information one can extract from a photo

I dont think anyone will advise you to eat something based on the level of information we can extract from a photo. It looks to me like insect damage. What is it like when you scrape it? Are all leaves like this?
