8 oz is a lot of iceberg. But I've always liked it, because it's so cold and refreshing and crunchy. It gets a bad rap.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Nothing is like the texture of iceberg. It's wonderful.

When I was a kid I thought I didn't like salad. It wasn't until I tried some mesclun that I discovered that actually, I just didn't like iceberg. I'll eat if if it's on a taco or burger or something like that, but in a salad, I like other greens (except arugula) much better.

For me it depends on what it is combined with. Maybe because we used a lot of different lettuces as a kid I never hated iceberg. For tostada or taco salad I like either shredded green cabbage or shredded iceberg - ideally with nopales.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Arugula pesto is good, but I agree that it's too bitter for me raw.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
More food in this thread? I'm...a salad philestine. Dressing is such the fat and calorie trap I gave it up long ago. I have twothree salads: 1. the Caesar, with dressing on the side so I can halve it with water and apply myself, and grilled chicken breast strips. 2. The dinner, with a base of dark greens and purple cabbage, chopped chicken and/or ham (depending whether or not I can smell the nitrites), shredded cheddar, shredded mozzie, chickpeas, shredded carrot, chopped egg, mushrooms, coarse black pepper, and a drift of balsamic vinegar--raspberry if they have it, no more than a single tablespoon or less of any ingredient except the greens. 3. Iceberg? I don't waste time and effort shredding and chopping and putting it on a plate and eating it with a fork. I take a wedge or just five or six whole leaves and eat them plain, out of hand.

I just got an email about scheduling another phone interview. I seem to be keeping up my pattern of being liked by colleges in Georgia.
