About Iceberg
Iceberg lettuce is a crisp, refreshing leafy green often used in salads, sandwiches, and wraps. Native to the Mediterranean region, it gained popularity worldwide for its mild flavor and delightful crunch. Nutritionally, iceberg lettuce is low in calories, with only about 10 calories per cup, making it a great addition to weight-conscious diets. It is also hydrating, as it is made up of over 95% water, and contains small amounts of vitamins A, K, and folate. However, compared to darker greens like spinach or kale, iceberg lettuce has fewer nutrients, making it less nutrient-dense. It is light in fiber but can be a versatile base for pairing with other nutritious ingredients. Ideal in various cuisines, its subtle taste and crisp texture make it a versatile and refreshing option for meals. While not a powerhouse on its own, it can contribute to a balanced diet when combined with richer nutrient sources.
