Is it okay to eat lettuce with brown edges?!


Question:

Is it okay to eat lettuce with brown edges?

I just openned a package of lettuce 2 days ago. It doesnt expire until 5 days from now, but since it's been openned in the fridge it's gotten brown edges on some of the pieces. Is this safe to eat??


Answers:

yeah, it doesn't hurt you. When I buy those bagged salads, I usually wash them, pat dry, and put it in a bowl with plastic wrap. You'd be surprised how much longer it lasts. BTW, I read an article in the Wall St Journal about how you should still wash the bagged salad even though it says, "Washed and ready to eat!"
