What it is

Romaine lettuce is a variety of lettuce with long, crisp leaves that form a loose head. It is grown worldwide and is a popular leafy green vegetable. It is typically consumed fresh in salads or as a wrap.

Why it's used

International bodies like the WHO/IARC have not classified romaine lettuce regarding carcinogenicity. It is not typically evaluated by JECFA or EFSA as it is a whole food, not an additive.
