My New Protest - Too Much Lettuce

 Why is it that we always get too much lettuce in store bought sandwiches when we don't even ask for it? It doesn't have a strong flavor and, especially the shredded kind, falls out of the sandwich at every bite.

What's up with that?

I've made it a practice at, for example, Subway, to never ask for lettuce. I prefer spinach. Why? ...well, it's large and leafy and doesn't easily escape the bread boundaries. If they had leafy lettuce, I might give that a try. (Well, at Subway, I'd probably ask for both."

But otherwise, I make this a nation-wide appeal. Either only serve leafy lettuce, or don't default to lettuce at all. If someone wants this all over their shirt and laps while they eat, give it to them in a cup and they can just throw it into the air as they eat. It accomplishes the same thing.
