Iceberg lettuce is a crisp, refreshing leafy vegetable known for its pale green color and tightly packed, globe-shaped head. Native to the United States, it rose to popularity in 20th-century American cuisine due to its long-lasting freshness and mild flavor, making it a staple in salads, sandwiches, and wraps. While iceberg lettuce is lower in vitamins and minerals compared to darker leafy greens, it’s still a hydrating, low-calorie option as it is made up of about 96% water. It provides small amounts of Vitamin K and folate and is a good choice for those seeking a light base for heavier meals. However, its relatively low fiber and nutrient content means it’s best complemented with other nutrient-dense foods. Popular across various cuisines, iceberg lettuce is valued for its satisfying crunch and versatility.
