Twitter’s best reactions to the Lettuce Crisis
UK supermarkets are rationing vegetables as a result of poor weather conditions in Souther Europe.
Britain’s largest supermarket chain Tesco has introduced a three-lettuce limit on icebergs and rival Morrisons has imposed a two-lettuce limit.

It may appear there’s an iceberg lettuce shortage, but remember that 90% of them can’t be seen.
