How to select

Purchase DOLE Hearts of Romaine in the refrigerated area of the supermarket's produce section. If salads are not kept under refrigeration, it will affect the product quality.

On the front of each package, the salad is stamped with an "ENJOY BY" date that should give you at least a few days to store after purchased. The salad is packaged in a see-through bag. When purchasing a salad, check the date stamped on the package and look at the salad to make sure it appears fresh. Do not purchase salads with a considerable number of brown-edged lettuce pieces or if the lettuce appears excessively wet.

After tossing with your favorite vinaigrette try adding: sliced chicken with portabella mushrooms and red or green bell pepper chunks.
