Default Lettuce tastes foul

Haloooooooooooooooooo people

I've been embarking on a raw food diet and this is day 9. I had some lettuce about 4-5 days ago which i ate with nuts and i enjoyed. The lettuce was very mildly sweet and i could eat it raw.

Today, there was a big lumpy piece of lettuce so i broke off the entire outer first leaf. I bit into it and puked it out immediately. It tasted foul!! It was a crisphead lettuce, no wilting, no significant dark patches or brown spots. I went to smell it, it had a sickly-oily smell and i put it in the fridge. I went to smell the remaining lettuce and EEEW the same sickly-oily smell.

Does anyone know what may be the cause of it? So far, most of my veggies have come in the form of juices but i read that eating them whole is better. But if they taste this foul...
