Free Lettuce!!!!
Sorry guys, I know, I know, but I can't resist it. Its another lettuce post!
The Bloke has just walked in from Coles....with a bag of FREE LETTUCE!
Well, to be strictly correct, its a free bag of mixed iceberg lettuce, carrot and cabbage, chopped together. They said its a new product, so they are giving away free bags!
Have just checked, and its true, there is real lettuce in the packet, and its FREE!!!
That even beats my 9 cents lettuces for sale in Gatton

Re: Free Lettuce!!!!
hehe........hope you have your tin hat on poll from the anti-lettuce brigade!!
there was something interesting in the news a while back here in the uk, a rport which said that the pre-washed bags of lettuce/salad had vry high levels of chemicals on them - something to do with antibacterial wash to keep the salad as fresh as possible. is this common practice in aus too???
i havent bought another bag of pre-washed salad since!!!

or it is one of those new genetically modified lettuce, and they are using you as human guinea pigs to test if it causes cancer or some other disease,

Re: Free Lettuce!!!!
FREE LETTUCE!
After a year in Oz, salad greens freedom fighter Polly is now more concerned than ever about the plight of Australian lettuces. Many of these creatures spend their days suffering in the artifical environment of an Oz supermarket. Often they are tightly wrapped in clingfim, making breathing difficult. They are kept indoors all day and never allowed out to roam freely as they would in their natural state. Often they are roughly handled by supermarket staff and prodded by customers. Even worse, they never get fed or watered, and are deprived of the opportunity to reproduce :scared: .
As decent, kindly people, are YOU shocked and disgusted by the sad plight of Australian Lettuces, like Polly...?
IF SO, YOU TOO CAN HELP POLLY IN HER QUEST TO FREE LETTUCES EVERYWHERE!
Please give generously to this worthy cause:
$8 buys a bottle of OSH to quench Polly's thirst as she bravely takes up the fight at the local Coles, to free condemned lettuces kept in miserable conditions.
$25 buys a bottle of decent sparking wine to help Polly ward off dehyration as she fights the Manager of Coles Vegetable Department for the freedom of salad greens everywhere.
$3500 buys a good pair of designer shoes for Polly, so that her bare feet don't get cold and blistered on all those supermarket floors.
You all know your duty. Polly knows she can count on your support.
