Poll: Morning Brew readers’ salad opinions

And a lot of you are down to cough up some serious green for a bowl of greens.

We also asked you to finish the sentence “A Caesar salad is best served…” and most of you think it belongs as a side dish (39%) or as a meal at a restaurant (38%), more so than a main dish you’d make in your own kitchen (14%). Almost no one (3%) wants to eat a Caesar salad at their desk in the office.

Finally, we asked you to share what unique but game-changing ingredient you recommend adding to salads. Here are our favorite responses.

For Caesar:

• “Buffalo sauce to a Caesar salad—changes everything. Avocado too.”—Pat from Massachusetts
• “For a Caesar salad, chicken marinated in honey mustard.”—Julie from St. Charles, MO
• “Throw a habanero in when making the dressing in a blender. San Francisco FD cookbook Caesar is undefeated.”—Bryan from San Francisco, CA

For everything else:

• “Always have to have banana peppers.”—Ashley from Alabama
• “Honeycomb.”—Jessie from Connecticut
• “Tiny cut-up pieces of pizza, croutonized.”—Kate from Dallas, TX
• “Potato skins instead of croutons...it adds crunch and becomes less like a salad.”—Preston from Dallas, TX
