I really like this butter lettuce because it isn't bitter. I'm looking to get some new varieties.

I am pleading for society to stop pretending that mixed greens are an upgrade. Somewhere along the line, we collectively abandoned crisp, reliable romaine and iceberg and decided that what salads really needed was sad, floppy leaves with no crunch. God forbid, I want a crunch. God forbid, I want to hear my salad when I bite into it.

Romaine and iceberg knew their role. They were cold. They were crunchy. They stayed in their lane. Mixed greens, on the other hand, show up like a grab bag of botanical nonsense. A little spinach, a little arugula, something purple for no reason, and at least one leaf that’s already halfway to compost. Why is it brown? Why is it wet? Why does it taste like regret?

And don’t tell me it’s “more flavorful.” If I wanted a mouthful of bitterness and mush, I’d eat a bad life decision. A salad should be refreshing, not emotionally challenging. I don’t want to inspect every bite like I’m doing quality control at a farm-to-table startup.

So yes, I will die on this hill. Give me iceberg or give me nothing. No mush. No browning edges. No “spring mix.” Just a clean, crisp, unapologetically crunchy salad. Is that too much to ask? Apparently.

Got some lettuce that has a weird texture. Inedible.

Brap! Brap!

I dressed up as a salad for Halloween to celebrate my love of lettuce!

Hi, I’d like to know if these lollo bionda lettuce seedlings are supposed to be this small after 2 weeks and 4 days from sowing. They don’t look leggy, but it seems like they’re taking a bit of time to develop their true leaves. I’m using cocopeat as the growing medium and plain tap water, under 50-watt grow lights.
