It is quite possible 2020 will be remembered as a turning point in American history, a moment after which the country became irretrievably different from what it had been before. Yes, that’s right, this could be the year consumption of romaine and other leaf lettuce finally surpasses that of head lettuce, which is mostly iceberg lettuce. Then again, it might not be. The 2019 data, released in September, actually show lettuce heads doing slightly better against lettuce leaves than in 2017 and 2018 (ahead by 0.3 pounds instead of 0.1). Perhaps New Yorker magazine food correspondent Helen Rosner’s [URL='https://www.newyorker.com/culture/kitchen-notes/its-time-to-admit-that-iceberg-is-a-superior-lettuce']August 2018 manifesto[/URL], “It’s Time to Admit That Iceberg Is a Superior Lettuce,” turned the tide. 🥗🥗🥗 [/QUOTE]
