I was a farmer; you should. Especially potatoes and fruit.
There's not even any dirt on potatoes. They must pressure wash them, (you also don't eat them raw).
I worked in a produce department for a bit and the lettuce definitely had dirt and the occasional bug in it before we trimmed and rinsed it
You should know that lettuce is not a potato then.

Source?
Lettuce is also the most common vegetable to be infected by salmonella.
All lettuce or certain varieties?
I still give them a good rinse and rub with a sponge.
