Pink lettuce

The Besalisk Dexter Jettster enjoyed the taste of a lettuce variety called pink lettuce and served it in his restaurant on the planet of Coruscant before the establishment, Dex's Diner, was destroyed during the first two years of the Galactic Empire's rule.The Last of the Jedi: Underworld established that Dex's Diner was destroyed by the Galactic Empire. The Essential Reader's Companion later stated that the novel took place around the year 18 BBY. The New Essential Chronology states that the Empire was formed in 19 BBY, so Dex's Diner was destroyed either during 19 BBY or 18 BBY. The lettuce was an ingredient in Jettster's Zeltros slider, a dish inspired by time he had spent on the eponymous planet.
