I think it's cavolo. Verza is a variety of cavolo.

We Romanians also use "varză" as slang to refer to something or someone being terrible or useless. For example:

"Jucătorul ăla de fotbal este varză" = "That football player is useless/terrible"

Somehow reminds me of Polish «warzywo» (vegetable).
