"Chives" are not part of "mesclun". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.116.101 (talk) 08:07, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Nalo greens"[edit]

Removed this paragraph from the article:

In Hawaii, similar greens are grown in the region of Waimanalo on the windward side of Oahu. Because of their origin, a similar salad mix called "Nalo Greens" is popular in Hawaiian cuisine. Mesclun salad mixes are also grown in many other parts of the Hawaiian Islands, for example MA'O Organic Farms in the Waianae area of Oahu, Kailani Farms in Kilauea on the island of Hawaii and Kauai Fresh Farms in Kilauea, Kauai.

Based on some web research, it seems that "Nalo greens" refers to one Hawaiian farm's general output of baby mixed greense. There's some evidence of generic usage of "Nalo greens" as a type of salad mix, but I didn't find any good sources for that. Nalo Farms does sell a number of specific, named mixes, like Dean’s Greens, Asian Greens, Healthy Greens, and Koolau Mountain Greens[1]. Bottom line, this seems to be a specific brand of salad mix rather than a regional type of mesclun. If more info is available that indicates differently, great! --Tsavage (talk) 20:55, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
