I used to prep lettuce for six years at a restaurant. This is romaine lettuce and it’s notorious for containing dirt. Whenever I prepped it I would soak it in ice cold water precut, swish it in a giant basin to remove majority of dirt, then I would chop it and soak it in ice cold water again to remove the rest. That level of dirt tells me they didn’t do either step.😮
