Yes: I am not quite sure what the rabe means but as far as broccoli is concerned that should not be a problem
re gout it is organ meats / meat in general and beans that seem to stir things up lentals are ok
diet control for gout is a bit challenging but mostly means limiting the above food
articles and checking the uric acid levels
broccolirabe is realted to turnips you eat the greens.

Gout : The uric acid in broccoli is a little higher than some other veggies, which could cause it. Ultimately most gout patients find their trigger, and then avoid it.
