Most of us don’t eat as much fruit and veggies as we know we should, but that goal might now be a bit more achievable. Scientists in Spain have engineered a new “Golden Lettuce” with 30 times more nutrients than the regular green stuff.
This is a really big point actually. When I’m growing salad greens, you have to stop giving them nutrients about a week before harvest, so the plant can burn through those saved up nutrients, otherwise it straight up tastes like metal/vitamins.
Does it taste good?
I feel like that is a bit part of the article missing

¯_(ツ)_/¯people say the same thing about growing cannabis but at least with weed it’s just bro science and has no scientific evidence.
Devil’s lettuce*
Does any lettuce taste good? It all tastes like wet grass to me. At least spinach has flavor.
Tbh I unironically like most lettuce in the right context
Crunchy freshness
If it tastes like lettuce, just throw any combination of oil, salt and bit of sweet and you’re good to go
