A leafy green vegetable that people commonly eat in salads. While not specifically named in the Bible, many scholars believe that lettuce (Lactuca sativa) may have been one of the "bitter herbs" mentioned in Exodus 12:8 and Numbers 9:11. These bitter herbs were to be eaten with the Passover meal as a reminder of the Israelites’ suffering in Egypt.
