Iceberg lettuce

Generally pale green in color, forming a solid head vegetable. The iceberg lettuce leaves are yellowish-green, thicker and stronger than the head lettuce leaves, crispy, with higher water content, more resistant to damage, and slightly sweet in taste. Iceberg lettuce is low in energy, rich in beneficial nutrients, a real vitamin bomb. Its vitamins are A B1-, B2-, C-vitamin, minerals A calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, and beta-carotene.

Its biggest advantage over many lettuce varieties is that its leaves stay fresh and crispy for days, and many people seek it because of its pleasantly neutral taste.
