Lettuce on burgers? Nope.

Lettuce does not belong on hamburgers! I was reading about how Wendy’s is removing lettuce from their burgers because of potential E-Coli. Why was it on there in the first place? A hamburger, by its very nature is a complete contradiction to lettuce. Hamburger…… red meat with grease squirting out of it, high in calories, often grilled increasing the carcinogen count. Lettuce……… green, healthy, for losing weight. While I’m thinking about it, why do we put lettuce in tacos? Since the price of everything has gone up, Jenny and I have had decided that tacos don’t need the $3 a head lettuce. We have not noticed a change in taste. In fact, I’m not sure lettuce belongs on the sandwich that has its name in the title. BLTs are just fine without the L. In fact, I prefer swapping the lettuce out for more tomato. However, BTT just doesn’t have the same ring to it. Too bad there aren’t any foods that would be good on a sandwich and start with the letter “U”. That could turn the BTT into and epic sandwich name.
