I find an ordinary plastic bag does not work unless you make some holes in it. If you look at celery or lettuce bags that these vegetables come in from the store, they the bags have holes.

See! That is precisely! What I was doing, first in the paper toweling, then
in the plastic bag, and no matter how fast I tried eating it, within a
matter of days, it was starting to feel wilted and the bottom of the plastic
bag had moisture/liquid in it, and slimey feeling lettuce. The one thing I
did and failed to mention here is also kept the plastic the lettuce came in
with the holes, put the paper towels in there, then into a plastic grocery
bag.

Let two! grins! grow! where one! grouch! was before!

Actually, I wrap a head of letece in paper towels and then slip it into a
plastic grocery bag. This seems to work pretty well for me, but, of course,

there is always the question of whether there are dark spots later. I don't

care as long as it feels fine, but it becomes an issue if I want to serve it

to company.

How are you set for rubber bands?

Okay! The thing is that I have one of the frost-free fridges, and it
would
be difficult to keep the paper towels sealed around the head of lettuce.

I think your problem is with the plastic bag.  Just wrap in paper
towel and check everything so if the towel needs changing if
something spills on it in the refrigerator you'll know it.
