Celery and rhubarb stalks contain strings that should be removed before feeding. Alternatively, cut the stalks into small pieces.

Iceberg lettuce has a reputation for causing diarrhea in many animal species. I do not recommend iceberg be fed to bunnies. However, many people have reported feeding this to bunnies without a problem.

This is a suggested ok list for bunny's

Select at least three kinds of vegetables daily. A variety is necessary in order to obtain the necessary nutrients, with one each day that contains Vitamin A, indicated by an *. Add one vegetable to the diet at a time. Eliminate if it causes soft stools or diarrhea.

Apple (remove stem and seeds)

Blueberries

Melon

Orange (including peel)

Papaya

Peach

Pear

Pineapple

Plums

Raspberries

Strawberries

Sugary fruits such as bananas and grapes should be used only sparingly, as occasional treats. Bunnies have a sweet tooth and if left to their own devices will devour sugary foods to the exclusion of healthful ones.
