I know how controversial this is gonna be and I don’t care: Arugula is better than lettuce on any sandwich.

No arguments from me.

Agreed big time, but TIL it’s not a lettuce.

Arugula is better than lettuce

This isn’t controversial at all (to me) almost any green is better than flavorless lettuce.

Butter lettuce or iceberg for me

I feel like lettuce is the sandwich equivalent to vodka, it blends with everything fairly benignly. But arugula is more like whiskey. It may not be as versatile, but it has more of a spicy/floral note that stands out on its own. Different flavors for different moods.

One of my favorite sandwiches I get lately is at a local bakery. Toscana italian sandwich with arugla, so damn good.

I know peppered tofurky when I see it.
I do kind of like arugula and tofurky, but not if I add vegan cheese.

it’s great but i don’t think it’s always better. sometimes a sandwich doesn’t need anymore flavor, it just needs a bit more crunch, and in those times iceberg is the way to go.

So a BAT instead of a BLT? Cool.

Arugula slaps. When it’s fresh, crispy and peppery. Also, arugula was my gateway leafy vegetable lmao only once I started eating arugula, I took a liking towards others and now I love them all. 🙂

If I got served a BLT but the replaced the L with A I’d be pissed.

Not on any sandwich, but most I agree.
dawgoooooooo
Shredded lettuce is a key ingredient for any sub that has a dressing/oil and vinegar thing. Wouldn’t incorporate well at all. I love me some arugula but completely disagree

This is an accurate take

Spinach gang. I don’t really eat lettuce anymore. I don’t understand consuming my water in a crispy, terrible tasting manner.

I completely agree. It’s my favorite salad base too.

Arugula is fantastic on sandwiches.

I’ve been opting for spring mix lately, that has arugula in it, so yeah no complaints here.
That with a little kimchi on my sammiches, and chicken sammies especially. Once you try it you’ll never go back.

I’ll add that you need to dress your arugala to maximize.
It’s not the best for everything, but it is better on a lot

Counter point. Arugula is one of the worst tasting things I’ll actually eat. Spinach on a Sammy tho beats lettuce every day of the week.

YESS ARUGULA ALL DAY

100% disagree. It might work better on SOME but definitely not on all.
