The Wedge

This is a popular way to enjoy iceberg lettuce. The wedge is just that, a cut out wedge portion of a head of iceberg lettuce. The wedge is a type of salad that is served in restaurants or can be made at home. Typically, a salad like this is topped with blue cheese dressing. Sometimes, consumers also will add chopped bacon bits. These little pieces may taste good but are not good for dieting and nutritional purposes. Other healthier topping ideas include nuts, chopped tomatoes, or sunflower seeds.
