*Special Instructions
Lettuce and Insect Inspection:
Two methods have been developed for the inspection of iceberg lettuce:
Preferred method:
1. Detach the loose leaves (‘‘wrapper leaves’’) and discard.
2. Core the lettuce and split the head in half, allowing the leaves to be
peeled away more easily.
3. Peel the four outermost layers (approximately eight leaves, not including
‘‘wrapper’’ leaves) off the head.
4. Carefully check these eight leaves. The most practical way to check is
to hold the leaf in front of direct light. Because the leaf is translucent
and the bugs are not, the bugs are accentuated and easily detected.
Check both sides of each leaf.
5. If no insects are found on these eight leaves, these leaves, as well as the
remaining leaves of the head, may be used without further checking. It
is recommended, but not required, that the remaining leaves be washed before
use.
6. If three or more insects are found on the first eight leaves, the remaining
leaves must be washed and checked prior to use.
Alternate method:
After completing steps 1–3 above, discard the outermost eight leaves. The
remaining portion of the head may then be used without further checking.
It is recommended, but not required, that these remaining leaves be washed before
use.
When shredded lettuce is desired for use in any type of salad, and
