When I buy lettuce, I don't purchase iceberg...
I usually buy green leaf or romain.
These lettuces have a nutritional value where as iceberg is
basically just water.
To store the leafy lettuces, dampen a paper towel...
I will wet one corner of the towel and then wad it up so the rest of
the towel absorbs the water...
again you want it damp, not soaking.
Wrap the paper towel around the lettuce and replace in the plastic
bag it came in from the grocery store.
I have had a head that has keep fresh this way for about a week now.
Peace ya'll!

Tupperware does have the lettuce container. The lid can be a little tricky.

I did that, Katie, and we even looked right by the produce, all to no avail,
and when we asked a person, they said not by the produce, directed us to
where the storage bags are, and nothing, so am checking different stores
around here; I know QVC carries them, but want to search locally,, if
possible; wonder if they come in different sizes; also wonder if Tupperware
has that lettuce storage container.
Let two! grins! grow! where one! grouch! was before!

Sandy, here on post at the commisary those bags are found over by the
produce area. Just ask some one that works at the store you shop at and
they can show you or tell you if they even carry them. I have never bought
them, but, know that is where they are usually always found. You can't be
shy, just ask for help from someone that works there. They will help you
out. Katie

Hi, Sandy,
I'm not sure where the Green Bags are located in the store. They are
good for all kinds of fresh produce. Put it in the bags dry and it
will keep for quite a while.
Sorry I don't have more information.
Blessings,
Alice
