What is Salad?
#1
Does Salad by definition need a dressing or can a bowl of raw vege and fruit be called a Salad?

I was discussing it with a friend and we both agree that to be a salad and not just assorted veges, it does need a dressing of some sort.

i'm just going to say YES.

There is no one salad that defines what a salad is and as far as dressing goes, that is a personal taste.

From the dictionary:

sal·ad /ˈsaləd/
Noun

1 A cold dish of various mixtures of raw or cooked vegetables, usually seasoned with oil, vinegar, or other dressing: "a green salad".
2 A mixture containing a specified ingredient dressed with mayonnaise: "tuna salad".

Usually, my emphasis, doesn't mean always.

The Wiki goes on to narrow it down to at least three different ingredients and a 'dressing'.

Salad is a category of dish which basic ingredient is usually raw vegetable. Salad is often served with a sauce or dressing including oil and an acid as a light savory dish, with a minimum of three ingredients.

Often - my emphasis, doesn't mean always.

Personally I consider a salad a mix of fresh (raw) fruits and or vegetables that are served bite sized and with a fork or other utensil. Thus a 'fruit salad' can contain bit sized pieces of fruit without a 'sauce' or seasoning added.


I think originally the dish was tossed greens (lettuce, spinach, type greens) served with vinegar, oil, salt and potent herbs - much like a Caesar Salad. Pretty much a specific dish that over the years has come to include a style of preparing foods over a specific dish influenced by many cultures who had their own ideas how to mix up a bowl of fresh veg and make various 'dressings' (salad sauces).

Technically I can't find anything to exclude a simple cold dish of mixed veg as being 'salad'.

I hate politically correct people. I often place vegetables and fruits all over my guy's body. I ate everything up and licked carefully. He washed everything down with a big load of semen shot directly into my mouth. now that was a great salad dressing. I used to love to dip his cock in a good hollandaise sauce. I would pour a brown mustard gravy on him and lick it up. We wasted no paper plates. We licked up everything. We ended a seven course dinner ina hot shower French kissing. Fucking and eating go together. I used to love to use Tom's 10 inch to eat yogurt from a cup.

Sex and food go together. Serve a meal on your friend's body. You will remember every bite.

Half a gallon of ranch flavored with lettuce and a package of croutons.


Edit: that's about two liters, for you metric weirdoes.
