I sell my salad mix for $8.50 per pound. Occasionally I get someone out to the farm who is a little taken aback by the price, but then I show them what a pound looks like. A pound fits loosely into two gallon bags and provides about 8 salads - even for big eaters like Toni and I. This is just over a dollar per salad, which I find to be quite cheap. Elsewhere on the Local Harvest forum, a former chef said you could get 10 salads out of a head of iceberg lettuce. At a dollar fifty per head, that is 15 cents per salad. So, you can eat even cheaper if you buy iceberg lettuce at the supermarket. However, what is a dollar worth to you? With $3.00/gallon gas and 21 miles per gallon on your automobile, you could drive 7 miles. At $4.00 a pint, you could buy half a cup of beer at the local pub for a dollar. You could buy a pair of white cotton socks at the Ferndale truck plaza for a dollar. Or, you could eat a salad for a dollar that is healthy, tasty, attractive, and contains 12 different kinds of lettuce. Sounds pretty cheap to me.
