In Germany in 1823 a young man named leroy tucce who was the eldest son of a German farmer and a Swiss dressmaker was on the farm collecting the family vegetables from the farm so his father could bring them to the farmers market, when he noticed quite a few birds on the far side of the farm. He thought maybe his scarecrow had fallen so he went to investigate. It turned out that the birds had gathered to see a new crop which looked like a cabbage. He pulled the head of leaves out thinking it was just overgrown weeds when he heard his father calling him. Without realising he brought the crop to his father and his father examined, washed and tasted it and he later decided to name the new crop after the discoverer.

The first drawings of lettuce came from is in the carvings at the Temple Of Senusret I at Karnak, where he offers milk to the god Min.

Min considered the lettuce to be sacred.

Also in Egypt lettuce was considered a aphrodisiac food.

Lettuce was mentioned in the mythological tales called The Contendings Of Horace and Seth.

In later times ancient Greeks thought lettuce could act as a sleeping agent.

The Romans planted lettuce, and in time it made it's way to the Papal Court of Avignon France.
