"Peking Lettuce" is derived from the frac2bunt of "I'm taking the piss!" Like
all good English it can have a variety of meanings dependant on context and/or
intent.
Peking Lettuce can be thought of as a salad whose primary ingredients are
lettuce and urine.
"Can we stop so I can make some Peking Lettuce please?"
Means the person has a requirement to urinate. This may be in the context of a
long journey through the countryside where there are not any public toilets.
The term can be used to indicate the making of a joke of a situation or person.
"Please excuse me, I spoke with a mouthful of Peking Lettuce."
As it is also potentially a food stuff it can, but less frequently, be used to
indicate hunger.
