Ah, my four favourite salads: Ashtray Pepto-Bismol, Fried Onion Extravaganza, Contrast Setting From Hell, and Feta Beans And Onions

German salads remind me of my step-mom. She loves salads. She specifically likes to make "everything in the house" salads and it's basically a base of various greens with every drat thing in the kitchen added. Fruit? Chop it up. Veggies? Throw them in. Canned beans, olives, etc? Toss it in. Any meats? Shred it up and add it. Top it all off with a huge scoop of cottage cheese and sunflower seeds and dress with Newman's Own Olive oil and vinegar.

Eat this as your one every other day meal and give your naturally not size 0 step kids a complex

Most of the time I'm down with about 75% of her ingredients but she will just keep adding poo poo until it's a heaping pile in the biggest bowl we own and it looks scary when she mixes it. Like lettuce themed vomit. And I'm not crazy about things like olives and kidney beans with mandarin orange slices or whatever weird combos she comes up with.

side note: Newman's Own Olive oil and vinegar dressing is the best salad dressing ever. I would eat it on saw dust but I wouldn't eat one of my step-mom's salad monsters.

Yeah, I keep homemade olive oil/red wine vin dressing in the fridge and the oil freezes.

It's been 41-61f in my house for three days, can confirm. The only reprieve is the sun and frankly I think it took a vacation to Cancun with Ted Cruz.

Ah new thread! I was slowly working my way through the old one so could never share some of my more interesting food. Hoping that's allowed...

Did save this one though, just because it looks so unappetising.

that's as far as I can tell a largely Midwestern-exclusive use of the word, and by and large their cuisine is to be mocked from a safe distance.

the gelatin salad is the worst salad, but this is the Wurstsalat :razz:

Wurstsalat is good poo poo. Put it on top lettuce if you don't like the Euro definition of salad.

Salad is literally just an uncombined mix of different pieces of food, typically served cold or room temperature and dressed. That's what salad means. There is no salad rule that says it has to be "healthy" or be mostly vegetables or any of that poo poo.

Potato salad is salad. Wurstsalat is salad. It's all salad.

Also both of those are good you prudes.

Per wiki:

A salad is a dish consisting of mixed pieces of food, sometimes with at least one raw ingredient. It is often dressed, and is typically served at room temperature or chilled, though some can be served warm.

Therefore, chili is a salad.

If you mixed up rice, soy sauce, fish, and whatever else in a bowl, yes. Sushi isn't mixed.

Interestingly, that makes salad composed of a single type of salad not salad, unless it's implied they can all be the same piece of food, in which case almost everything is a salad.

Yes, I'd argue that eating whole leaves of plain lettuce isn't salad

At least one fresh ingredient :colbert:

If you add milk, it's a soup or a stew.

Skip the milk and add enough fresh fruit and it becomes a salad.
