There are some of us who can handle salad. As long as it's not on a completely empty stomach, and I'm careful about which vegetables I use, I can eat a salad fine. Long after I'd reincorporated cooked veggies and raw SF veggies into my diet, I was still scared of salad. It is one of the harder things to reincorporate, but once you're stable you might be able to handle it. Spinach is an easier base, I think, than regular lettuce. And I try to include SF veggies like carrots and mushrooms. I also try to eat it with some bread, and never the first thing on an empty stomach. But it doesn't bother me at all now.
Once you're stable, and can handle cooked vegetables, give it a try. Do it when you're home or somewhere safe, and feeling well otherwise. But aside from hard-and-fast triggers, don't be afraid of any food.
