Delenn has been clutching this piece of lettuce to her chest for the entire opening of this scene
She’s just been holding it in the background, staring at it in confusion as the camera pans past various extras
All that is on Garibaldi’s plate is a similar piece of lettuce

Delenn is used to ceremonies where eating anything is deeply significant. She’s waiting for a cue to eat this thing properly. Everyone assumes this is the Traditional Minbari Vegetable Hesitation and has not given her the all clear.
Garibaldi is just waiting for them to put real food on his, like a lettuce wrap or something. “It’s just decorative, right? No one eats this, right? It’s like parsley or some shit, yeah?”
