Bruce Taylor

Bruce Taylor is named in Big Lettuce meets Small Intestine as the founder of Taylor Farms. The source uses his 1995 company as the clearest business case for the shift from whole-head lettuce as a commodity to bagged, chopped, and mixed lettuce as a value-added manufactured product.

The page is intentionally narrow: the episode does not provide a full biography. Taylor’s wiki role is to anchor the founding point for Taylor Farms and the broader Bagged Salad Industrialization branch.
