is this a language/culture thing? because rucola is absolutely in the "a kind of lettuce" class of vegetable here, together with romaine and kale.
It is in that class but when you say lettuce I imagine iceberg lettuce or something similar. You know things actually called lettuce.
yeah we call it "rucola lettuce"
In english? Because we only call it rucola.
no, translated
I see. Differneces between languages then. We only call lettuce the ones which are quite crunchy and full of water. Kale rucola and sinilar are just the name.
