That is basically serving me an explosive diarhea salad. Only took me like 30 years to figure that one out. Now I only eat romaine, spring mix, or spinach.
You have a multitude of defects, probably too late with the lettuce for you. :tongue:
Vietnamese eat lettuce?
On my VEGGIE burger? Yes, absolutely. Though spinach is a bit better than iceberg or romaine lettuce.
If you're writing to me my blindness prevent me from seeing it, and my lack of immune system leaves me too weak to care.
No, the Vietnamese are savages.
Iceberg is the main type of lettuce I usually eat. I like it because it's crunchy. I cut a head up and rinse in a colander...then divide into tupperware containers and stick in the fridge. It's nice and chilled when I eat it and very crunchy.
I partake of other varieties too but iceberg is my preference.
Guess that makes me a savage.
