Ice Berg

Product Overview:
Iceberg Lettuce is the world’s most popular leafy green for one reason: its unbeatable texture. Sourced from farms that prioritize cool-climate growing conditions, our Iceberg is harvested at dawn to lock in maximum moisture. Unlike loose-leaf varieties, Iceberg grows in a dense, heavy head that protects the tender interior leaves from the elements, ensuring a clean, grit-free experience. Whether you’re looking for a low-calorie "crunch" for your sandwich or a hydrating base for a summer bowl, this lettuce provides a neutral, crisp foundation that lets your dressings and toppings shine.

Key Features:

Signature Cool Crunch: Selected for its high turgor pressure, meaning every leaf delivers a loud, refreshing "snap" when bitten.

Mild & Versatile Flavor: A clean, subtle taste that won't overpower other ingredients, making it the perfect vehicle for bold sauces and seasonings.

SQA Monitored Selection: Every head is hand-inspected to ensure it is heavy-for-its-size, firmly packed, and free from "rust" or wilting on the outer leaves (SQA Checked).

Dense Core Protection: The tight structure ensures a longer shelf life compared to almost any other salad green.

Storage Instructions:
Keep the head whole and store it in the refrigerator's crisper drawer. For the best results, keep it in a breathable bag or wrap it in a damp paper towel. Pro Tip: Only wash the leaves immediately before use; keeping the head dry during storage ensures it stays "Iceberg-crisp" for up to 2 weeks.
