    I don’t think that salad bought in a store should have bugs and dirt on it, if you find them in your sink when you wash it you should change supermarket

    EDIT: My bad, I was thinking about pre packaged salad, not like a whole head of lettuce, OP is correct and OOP should wash their lettuce better

      Bro people poop in the fields because they literally just don’t have time to go back to the restroom in between shifts of picking

      And I don’t blame them in the slightest. They have a very hard job

      So I don’t know about you but I will always be washing any produce that I buy at the grocery store as soon as I bring it in my house

      Bugs mean fresh and no pesticides!

      BUGS GOOD!

      It’s like finding soil on your tubers. It’s better to have to wash it off.

      Lettuce grows in a bundle of very tightly packed leaves. At no part in the growing - transport - shelving - selling chain can anyone be expected to thoroughly wash between the leaves, especially near the root. Rinse your veggies before using.

      I’ve been using Original Commenter (OC) to talk about the person who starts a comment thread. Seems to be pretty intuitive. Wonder what the acronym would be for commenters responding to OC and starting different comment branches. Probably makes sense to just use their name
