Is lettuce considered an herb?

If we go back to the old 20 Questions TV Program, we find that everything is basically classified as being either being animal, vegetable, or mineral. Therefore, since herbs are plants, they are vegetables. However, if you meant "are herbs normal, edible vegetables, like a tomato (which is actually a fruit), lettuce, beets, or celery, etc.", then the answer is "not usually". Many flower petals such as marigolds, zinnias, (even) roses are edible and are sometimes part of a salad or dessert. Yet these are not usually considered to be herbs. Also, many herbs in small quantities are used to flavor foods or as medicines. As another example, marigold petals, placed in oil, are used to treat skin problems. Some herbs make very strong medicines and should never be used as food.

Can dwarf rabbits eat lettuce?

Dwarf rabbits can eat the same foods as other pet rabbits. When it comes to pet rabbit diet, the important factor isn't breed but size: small rabbits eat smaller portions!

Rabbits can eat some varieties of lettuce in moderation. Dark-coloured varieties (like romaine, green leaf, red leaf) are healthy and can be included in the rabbit's "salad," but too much can lead to gas or diarrhea or other illness, so lettuce shouldn't be fed every day. White/light-coloured varieties of lettuce should be avoided entirely because they too easily lead to diarrhea, and they're low in nutritional value anyway.

See the related question below about the pet rabbit diet (it applies to dwarves as well).
