What is Iceberg Lettuce

Iceberg lettuce is the most commonly purchased type of lettuce in America. It comes in large balls of wrapped leaves, and is well suited for cold environments. It contains more water than other types of lettuce, giving it a refreshingly crisp yet moisturized texture. It is a popular choice for homemade salads and toppings for mexican dishes. Iceberg lettuce can be found in almost every supermarket across the country. It is also known as crisphead lettuce.
