listersgirlWhy I Love Salad: An Essay in Four Points
1. Crunchy! I love crunchy foods. I crave crunchy foods. Crunch crunch crunch.
2. I like variety. I have a short attention span, even when it comes to food. The love of variety is why I'm so fond of buffets and pay-by-weight and tapas. And salads (good salads) have lots of stuff in them.
3. I know it's odd, but I think I like food better when it's presented in small pieces. Especially vegetables. I like them chopped up into little pieces! There are quite a few vegetables that I always thought I didn't like - it turns out I mostly didn't like them when they were just a large vegetable on a plate. This is why stirfries are awesome.
4. Salad dressings. Dips and dressings make life worth living.
