Hint #1 - Iceberg lettuce remains fresher longer than any other type of lettuce because of its high water content. Iceberg will keep for 7-14 days, whereas romaine lasts 6-10 days, and butter (or Boston lettuce) for only 3-4 days.
Hint # 2 - Don't throw away the outer leaves from a head of lettuce! They come in handy when you need to cover foods in the microwave. You won't have to use a paper towel, and the leaves will keep your food moist.
