Plant pathogens that are spreading disease in the lettuce fields of the Salinas Valley in the Central Coast are leading to a nationwide lettuce shortage and higher prices at the supermarket.
At Nob Hill in Salinas, a head of lettuce was being sold for more than $4 on Monday.
The higher prices are also impacting fast food restaurants like Wendy’s and Chick-fil-A. The restaurants have stopped serving lettuce on their sandwiches. Other businesses that also rely on lettuce are also struggling.
