A random note about lettuce...
I am a big fan of Romaine because according to the Netzer food counts book, most brands have Fiber as 100% of carbs (effectively free on Atkins). This means I use it in everything, and am a big fan of Ceasar's salad.
So, because I use so much, this week I bought a huge bag at BJ's and DW and myself have been eating it at every dinner. Then I look on the bag... it was CARBY!! I rushed back to my Netzer guide and sure enough at the bottom of the list: DOLE brand romaine has sugar carbs! And the ingredients just say: Romaine Lettuce.
Once I get some Real Romaine, I can't wait to try a nice Taco salad. Yum!
