A well done salad is delicious. It doesn't need to be drenched in dressing and grated cheese to be amazing.

Most places you go to will give you crappy salads with mediocre ingredients and no thought put into it, so I can see why that impression is left.

Salad with chicken, tomatoes, avocados, onions, carrots, cucumbers, olives, peppers, cheese, and croutons with Caesar dressing is how I like my salads. Most people I see just eat lettuce and cabbage with some ranch on top, ****ing amateurs man

Pretty much this.

But even still, even the most amazing of salads are even better with dressing.

I've been following gamergate since the beginning and from what I've gathered it's basically consumers being fed up with gaming "journalists" being corrupt idiots trying to push their own agendas and ideologies into the mainstream by basically doing whatever they can without getting caught. Fortunately, they're slowly but surely being exposed for their lack of journalism ethics.

The other part of gamergate is just two groups trying to make each other look as bad as possible regardless of how irrelevant the **** they accuse each other is, so it's like modern american politics. I have a buddy who goes to Columbia University who tweets the most irrelevant liberal bull**** about gamergate and it makes me want to shoot my fist through my computer screen every god damn day in the hope of it somehow reaching his smart ass face.
Salads in general are horrible. except maybe ceasar. oh the irony of having a grass type pokemon as my avatar right now
600th post goes out to you for being completely wrong. Salad is the **** yo because it tastes good, it's got a good texture, it's nutritious and it can be eaten infinitely cause it's not filling at all.

grass pokemon are bad in general

The only times I've actually eaten a salad is for the sake of having a balanced meal, rather than actually wanting one.

And even then I'd rather Nutribullet some veggies with fruit and just make a shake, because ain't nobody got time for that.

How can I be wrong about me not liking salad? lol! If you like the taste of salad thats fine but the fact that im not a fan of the taste of most salads coupled with it not being filling at all makes eating salads not worthwhile for me. As for grass pokemon I wouldn't know. I don't play pokemon competitively. I just think mega Sceptile looks boss

Taste is individual preference but not being filling is sort of the point of a first course.

Soup and bread are similarly not supposed to be filling, but nobody says a delicious soup of your choosing with a fresh roll and melted butter isn't welcome before the main course comes out.

Well maybe they do, but that's still a weird complaint.

People who want to feel filled before the main course are the same people who go to red lobsters and eat nothing but biscuits and have to take home 80% of their entree in a doggy bag.

Which his horrible because reheated entrees are no where near as delicious as freshly made entrees.

So really, you're doing a disservice to yourself and your wallet by doing this to yourself.

kind of the reason i dont usually go to those types of restaurants. The idea of a first course is weird to me. I just want the main course that i ordered. But even then i will take soup over salad any day

Neko where's your purple ribbon?

Or did the PMDT switch it for a pink slip? ;[
Havn't asked for one. I just moved back to TX so all I've been doing is lurking.

Dammit Neko, you know Greek salad is da bob-omb.
Absolutely not. Whole black olives are ****ing disgusting.

But it's not greek salad without olives.

So I will do without and simply enjoy the other several dozen salads with delicious feta cheese in them.

Salad talk? I love the Spinach Apple salad my job serves. The Lemon Poppy seed dressing they toss on it is just pure gold too.

this is why stereotypes are useful and not inherently a bad thing.
Sure they are.
I am an sjw my tag is sjw social justice wario
but really tho the demonization of sjws (in fact just using it as an insult in the first place) is a ****ty strawman in and of itself and idk what the negative connotation of being for equality is

They get lumped in like that because they ARE usually that bad. It's not like it's not uncalled-for.
Also shoutouts to @ Rᴏb Rᴏb to knowing whats good with GG
*intentionally misreads*

My man.

My problem with salads is that I hate ranch, most other salad dressings, and tomato. Tbh Id just like to eat spinach with fruit salads on top. I love vegis but they aren't that good for you raw, steamed spinach is top tier.
when I'm eating healthy or sick of chicken sandwiches somehow, I'll have broccoli/spinach/mushroom stir fry, a bowl of fruits and some yogurt with raisins and granola in it. That ****s dank yo

Ranch sucks too, I've been exploring the others but I've usually just gotten Caesar or Italian, and sometimes Balsamic vinaigrette and French but depending on the French it can sometimes suck. Like I don't remember how 1000 Island tastes but it probably sucks and I'll try it sometime. The best out there are probably real deal authentic stuff you're not gonna get served at common places, that could possibly even make blue cheese tolerable like I'm not slurping on garbage can fluid.

Also I love raw Spinach but apparently eating too much too often can reduce your absorption/intake of Iron with one of the things it contains. But otherwise yeah, I'd do the same thing.

Tomatoes are usually awesome. I use to not like cucumbers/cauliflower that much as a kid but now they're decently tasty.

Coleslaw kind of sucks, someday I want find one that tastes somewhat good

But yeah, like we'll all discussing, sometimes I crave a decent salad just as much as any other big food craving. Preferably involving chicken in it.

Oh and sprouts are also pretty good but I think they're often not sold at places due to them being an easily contaminated food.

I like Salads, but I'm too picky about what's in them. I also like to cook stuff, and Salad's take all the fun out of that!

If I make one at home, it's either really plain (and without a lot of raw veggies like carrots/cucumbers) or really over the top (stir fry meat/shrimp with bell peppers/mushrooms/etc, laid over the lettuce and topped with freshly toasted Sesame Seeds and a thin Thai Chili Lime sauce)

Needless to say, I usually don't opt to craft the sh** out of that Salad

I don't like salad

Tomatoes are gross

Cucumbers are gross

Salad dressings are gross

Why can't y'all be normal and just eat a burrito or some enchiladas or something

Tomatoes are gross GREAT! Try roasting them in the oven before eating

Cucumbers are gross absolutely true I hate them BUT I LOVE PICKLES!

Salad dressings are gross the possibilities are near endless, you can almost certainly find one you like. Fruity, Nutty, Oil based, Vinegar based, etc

Why can't y'all be normal and just eat a burrito or some enchiladas or something

Salad dressings are generally either vinegar based, oil based, or some sort of ranch. Lo and behold I don't like oily food and I think vinegar is one of the worst flavors invented by mankind. Also that's why I can't stand anything pickled. I had a salad at my uncle's weeding that I enjoyed, but it probably costed 50 bucks to make a serving bowl of that salad.

I don't understand why salads are everywhere. Why do I have to take a salad off of my burger before I can eat it. I ordered a cheeseburger, not a salad in between two buns.
