How Do You Normal People Eat So Much Salad Dressing?

I can't even handle 2 tablespoons. XD It's just too much for me. It all gets left in the bottom or my leaves are too soaked and wilty...then I feel bad for the dressing in the bottom of the bowl because nobody is going to eat it. Poor dressing. I didn't mean to kill you. Q_Q

    Haha totally agree! Especially ranch, when the ratio is all wrong haha. It's almost like the dressing is dripping off the salad.

    I usually just use braggs, hummus, balsamic vinegar by itself, or some lemon juice!

    Very interesting post.

    Why do you think we people eat a lot of salad dressing? I eat a normal amount of dressing.

    I WISH I didnt eat so much dressing. 2 tbs seems like nothing. Im thinking the opposite......im thinking who came up with such a darn low serving size lol! I seriously struggle with this everytime I eat a salad ; ((

    Clearly it has to do with the size of the salad. It's all about the proper ratios.

    I like it. Maybe that the lettuce by itself bores me. I like to eat a lot of fat too.:)

    Do you mix the hummus with something to thin it a bit? It seems kinda thick for a dressing.

    I don't do dressing...ever. It kills the flavor of mixed greens and is a waste of calories.

    I think sometimes it depends on the consistency of the dressing. 2 Tbsp. of a thin dressing might be too much, but 2 Tbsp. of a really thick dressing just sits on a few of the leaves leaving the rest of the salad undressed. I usually just put it on the side and dip the tips of my fork into it for each bite. That way all the salad has a little dressing.

    For thicker dressings, I put about a tablespoon on top, then cut through with a knife and fork, and stir everything up.

    For thinner dressings, just a couple of teaspoons, then put the lid on the bowl and give it a good shake.

    i dunno i have to get it on the side now wherever I go - although I used to like my salad (especially caesar) totally covered - now I just can't handle it like that
