A lot of people say that iceberg lettuce is all water, no nutrients. But we've eaten iceberg lettuce before...and we know there's more to it than that. This may take you by surprise, but we're not going to say STOP eating iceberg lettuce. We're actually going to say 'why not eat more of it?"
Iceberg lettuce offers crisp crunchiness to salads that other salad greens don't. And maybe the green's plump crunchiness comes from the fact that it is made up of a lot of water. But that doesn't mean it has zero nutrients.
Instead of avoiding iceberg lettuce at all cost, and instead of only eating iceberg lettuce ever...meet int the middle. Mix iceberg with leafy spinach for a dynamic mix of texture and nutrients. If you're feeling extremely well rounded, better throw in some romaine, arugula, and watercress.
Problem solved.
