Best Answer

When speaking of items that we eat such as food crops, one must be aware that when we ask 'What type of ......, is this, that we are not inaccurately asking what 'Variety' the item comes from. A very good example is Apples. Is the apple used for cooking? Is it better eaten raw? Does it go well with other fruit? So you have for example: Macintosh (which recently celebrated its 150th birthday), Rome, Cortland, Northern Spy, Spy, Granny Smith, Russet, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, just to name a few. So which are classified as cooking apples, eating apples or both?

As for the Varieties of Lettuce, there are: Arugula (AKA Rocket), Boston or Butter lettuce, Little Gems, Mesclun, Mizuna, Mache (Lambs' lettuce), Oak Leaf Lettuce, Purslane, Romaine Hearts, and Watercress.
