Isn't iceberg lettuce so common in part because it's one of the most stable lettuces? Still absolutely hilarious that Truss was outlasted by a head of lettuce, but I want to make sure that we're being accurate.
Iceberg lettuce is a cultivar known for its longer shelf life and higher water content.
Romaine lettuce is another lettuce cultivar famous for its crunchy texture and higher vitamin content.
I am switching to Romaine for the vitamins now I know (have read a single headline on the internet) better.
