Les, is that you?

As God as his witness ....

Why is romaine only affected?  Why doesn't this affect other leafy vegetables?

romaine makes the best toilet paper

Romaine's chemical makeup has a strand in it similar to that found in eggs, it's why romaine has nutritional value over iceberg

This is a direct attack against the Caesar salad by the media

How long do I go before I say I totally made up my answer.......

HC!

My wife and I only eat flying turkeys, so we should be okay.

PSA #2....a Thanksgiving classic

Bollocks.

A single cool leaf of iceberg lettuce is an integral textural component of a proper BLT. 

Ok that is the exception

Also my wife has been eating pre-packaged romaine based salads for weeks.  So far so good

Seems like a good time to acquire some at a discount.

Lettuce for texture is as big a joke as lettuce for taste.

"If only something on my BACON sandwich would crunch."

Try cooking your ####ing bacon.

Two totally different crunches... and the cool lettuce/tomato/mayo is the ideal contrast to the hot salty bacon (not to be confused with chocolate salty balls).

Some yenta made a scene in the market this morning about them not removing romaine from the shelf. Cashier had to leave her station to appease her concerns. Because this wench lost her #### about what turned out to be green leaf. I love a little unintentional hilarity before second coffee.

You need two crunches because lettuce sucks and three contrasts because lettuce sucks.  Skip the lettuce.  It sucks.

If we used heads of lettuce in place of soccer balls, maybe more Americans could afford to play soccer and we'd be more competitive.

I'm giving you the LOVE for the use of the word yenta.  Very underrated word.  One of my go tos

Secure our place on the world soccer stage: Boycot lettuce.

 

[squistion]

Wish I knew about this before I went to the market yesterday. Bought two packages of Dole precut romaine. Didn't have any last night, used the package of shredded iceberg I got instead. Guess I got to throw it out rather than risk getting sick. :X

I was not aware of your war on lettuce.  Is there a backstory?

Incubation period on this one sounds like it is up to 8 days... I had some romaine last night so call the Feds if I disappear next week.

I'm guessing everyone, including @General Malaise, has forgotten the backstory.  It's not what you'd think.

Every time I see this thread title I think of this

Romaine doesn't roll very well.

I used to like you.

I know a guy who is convinced that lettuce is the cause of most cancers. His reason? "It's the only vegetable that can never be fully cleaned."

He's going crazy on Facebook right now.

 

[gianmarco]

Please throw away any romaining lettuce you may have.

 

[Johnny Rock]

Why is it that when the CDC says for everyone to throw out their romaine lettuce people take it as gospel yet when the same agency tells you vaccines save lives they’re part of the Illuminati? Copied from Facebook. 

 

[dickey moe]

if i ate it, how can i then throw it away?

By throwing it up, and away.

From the Twitters:

Please warn the @WhiteHouse staff to explain to @realDonaldTrump that #romainelettuce has nothing to do with Romania. Otherwise, he will threaten them with sanctions and tariffs when he hears about the lettuce. Thanks.

You’re FB friends with BobbySac?

what exactly does that mean it can’t be cleaned?

THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR: DIRTY FARM WATER IS MAKING US SICK

This was 100% predictable and preventable.

Just another thing that nobody cares about.

I stand with the lettuce enjoyers.
