    You seem to be very preoccupied with France (and European beaches). Not
    everyone wants to hang out in Europe 🙂


    Having lived in Europe, I can say I heartily enjoyed hanging out in
    France and on the European beaches. 🙂

    All sorts of ways to dress a salad. 😉

    ...including just mixing the two together. Top, bottom, one
    ingredient at a time? Bah! Now I know ya'll are just jerking my
    chain. :P

    My mother did the one at a time thing. Drove me nuts, because a main
    ingredient was granulated sugar (kind of a sweet and sour dressing).

    Have you ever considered taking the wild mad chance of actually
    tossing the salad yourself? I know it's risky, but trust me. I have
    it on good authority your salad will neither explode nor will your
    lips fall off.

    Perhaps you are more talented than me, but I seldom find it works well
    in combining the two (unless they give me a bowl and tongs for serving),
    and I end up with an embarrassing amount of salad on the table.

    I had thought that the era of the unlikely serving size had
    ended a year or two ago when the Giant Stores were rightly
    ridiculed for selling "non-fat" salad dressing (based on a
    serving size of 1/2 teaspoon.) However the practice seems to be
    creeping back as witness today's (6/13/07) Food Section, page
    F10, with Avocado Ranch Dressing that contains 1g of fat based
    on a serving size of 1 tablespoon. Be honest, who uses only one
    tablespoon of salad dressing?

    Uh, me.

    I don't use salad dressing at all, of any kind.
