In Watsonville local lettuce men push a cooked lettuce diet to curb consumption and boost sales. Chef Eustace Vatheot showcases dishes like meatball stuffed lettuce, a lettuce head with egg sauce, and corned beef with lettuce. Proponents claim minerals and vitamins without fat, while growers hope higher demand uplifts bank rolls amid low prices. Nebraska reports the nation’s largest farm land percentage.
