lettuce is great but its so light and fluffy. i accidentally was duped into buying two gallons of lettuce and theres no way i will finish it using traditional salads and as a topping.

There has to be someway to compact lettuce into lets say a dense patty with some actual weight on it. This would be good and might just start some sort of food revolution. A more efficient way to serve lettuce, eat a lot of it and take advantage of its high nutritional value.

I usually prefer spinach in my salads. Mixed greens are alright too. Only poor people eat iceburg lettuce.

Iceburg is actually pretty dense. I'm talking specifically about mixed greens, spinach, baby lettuce and romaine. how can we make it more dnese without cooking it or severely altering the texture/nutritional value.

I need a lettuce compactor that works like a garbage compactor to compress paper.

I simply want to reduce the leaves to a packed volume without changing them chemically.

I will try to "mash" them together overnight with a weight and see if they come out as a dense "patty"

You should be able to fit like 10x more into a sandwich.

Why do you think America if getting fat? It's all the fries.

Eat a sweet potato or butternut squash instead. They're much healthier alternatives with a much lower GI.

Fat good. Sugar bad.

Try making some kind of smoothie or something? Lettuce has such a minor flavor that it probably won't taste that strong.

Yeah we juice it.
