Is there a chance that lettuce could one day grow some rampantly that it could take over the world?
If area sandwich shops are any indication, the answer to this question is an overwhelming "yes." After all, whenever the folks behind the sandwich counter query what items I would like between a pair of pieces of bread, the moment the word "lettuce" escapes my vocal cords the sandwich artists seems to dig into the container of leafy greens like there's a prize at the bottom. The result is a club sandwich that apparently hopes to avoid being pinched on St. Patrick's Day.
I figure the reasoning behind this lettuce generosity must be that lettuce is highly volatile if it remains earthbound too long. If too much grows in our Earthly soil at once, the lettuce can develop self-awareness and then begin planning the demise of all other living organisms. The only way to counteract this is to pick as much lettuce as possible and then separate it in healthy heaps to sandwich-lovers everywhere. Why don't we just plant less lettuce, rather than capitalizing the "L" in bLt?
Uhh...
Good question.
