Most people do not seem to understand the full benefits of the leafy vegetables eaten raw. There are many to name them!
Not too long ago, some of these greens were deemed exotic or fancy, but they have made their way into the mainstream and can be found in your local grocery store or farmers' market. Eating raw vegetables is very healthy.
Remember also to wash them thoroughly, especially before eating them raw. Wash them with a bit of salt water for the germs to die. I will list some of the main vegetables which could be eaten raw.
Butterhead lettuce
Alternate names: Chioggia, red chicory, red leaf chicory, red Italian chicory
Characteristics: Pronounced "rah-dick-ee-yo," you can find this deep-red-purple vegetable sold either as a compact round head, as pictured above, or shaped like its relative, endive. The bright coloring makes it stand out. When cooked, the red-purple hue turns brown and what was once bitter becomes sweet.

Pictured, top to bottom: Boston, bibb (limestone)
Characteristics: A type of head lettuce, the leaves of Boston and bibb lettuces are soft. And as this variety's name implies, the texture of butter lettuce is indeed smooth like butter. Bibb is the more expensive of the two and is usually sold in a plastic container to protect the delicate leaves.

Radicchio
Alternate names: Chioggia, red chicory, red leaf chicory, red Italian chicory
Description: Cabbage’s tightly layered leaves form a compact head surrounded by darker outer leaves. Common varieties are green, red, crinkly Savoy, Chinese, bok choy, and Napa. Cabbages are generally interchangeable in recipes, although Chinese cabbages cook in less time.
You may cut it into very minute sizes to eat as raw food with other cookies.
Why I recommend fresh green chilly to eat raw is that it aggravates our appetite. But remember those gastric patients should be kept far away from chilies. You may sprinkle black or white pepper on top too!
