LETTUCE GEM

Lettuce Gem, also known as Little Gem lettuce, is a compact, mini-head variety that has gained popularity for its crisp texture, sweet flavor, and versatility in culinary use. It belongs to the Lactuca sativa species, the same as other common lettuce types, but it’s known for its small size and dense, crunchy leaves.

Lettuce Gem, like other lettuce varieties, is low in calories but high in water content. It provides a good source of vitamins A and K, as well as folate, and is rich in fiber. Its mild flavor and refreshing crunch also make it a great choice for anyone seeking a nutritious, light addition to meals.
