Iceberg lettuce is popular in the US but I don't know how well mechanical 
harvesting works. Someone is trying to develop a cultivar with a longer 
stem that will hold the head higher above the soil.

Trivia: iceberg lettuce got its name from being shipped in chipped ice in 
the early days. In Steinbeck's 'East of Eden' that's Adam's big idea 
although it doesn't work out well. 

Is it good that supermarkets have most produce year around? I don't know. 
It's one more way to remove people from the reality of the seasons. Why 
look forward to fresh sweet corn if it's always available? This time of 
year many people were canning the end of the harvest.
