Invasive?

A friend gave me a male and female hardy kiwi.  I looked it up to see whether it wanted full sun or partial shade.  When I looked it up, it turns out that it is invasive and termed "kudzu of the north."
But since it makes something edible, I'm having a problem deciding that it is a bad thing.  Yes, I saw the pictures where it ate a field and some trees.  I don't know how long it took, but I doubt it was ten minutes (which is about how long I think it takes kudzu or even wisteria or honeysuckle to spread.
