Description

Probably the world's most widely used salad vegetable, Lettuce is thought to have originated in the Mediterranean region in the form of Prickly Lettuce. It is recorded as having been served in Persia in 400 BC.

Lettuce allergy is not frequently reported in the literature, but is found in clinical practice, predominantly in the southern part of Europe. Lettuce may induce symptoms of food allergy, in particular oral allergy syndrome, in sensitised individuals. Adverse reactions may be severe, resulting in anaphylaxis.
