You guyyyys….
I'm making a nice salad for lunch...and now I'm eyeing the Easter basket full of chocolate that my Mom gave me...and starting to think about it....
Y'all are a bad influence.

I have put m&ms on salad
Someone disagreed with the fact that I have actually placed a number of M&M's (not peanut M&M's) on my salad?
I have put m&m's on salad
I have put m&m's on salad
Disagree all you want but
STILL, I've physically placed innocent little m&m's on top of a salad and then dug my fearsome teeth into them and consumed them!
People put dried grapes on salad, which is ALSO something I've done!
People put dried cranberries that have been dipped in sugar and had a passing acquaintance with oil on salad which is ALSO something I've done!
I have put prunes on my salad after they were pitted, shriveled, lightly oiled, and shoved in a sealed package that was shipped across the continent.
And apples both local and imported from New Zealand both with and without a copious amount of wax.
But not applesauce: I have standards, you know?
I've even put yogurt on my salad.
Deal with it.
It's a SALAD!!!!
What kind of dressing did you use with the M&M salad? Also what kind of salad was it. I think many people think of salad as very traditional, having lettuce tomato, carrots, etc.
Many people miss out on fun experiences by not being willing to experiment.
That's speaking generally. M&M salad doesn't appeal to me. (I rarely put sweet things in my salad, at least nothing sweeter than aged balsamic, which I admit is pretty sweet, sweetness generally is not my favorite flavor theme.) It still seems like a reasonable experiment for someone who does like sweets in salad, as PAV evidently does.
People, people: Experiment with food. It's fun. What's the worst that could happen? Momentary yuck. What's the best that could happen? Revelations about pleasure.
P.S., I'm not saying that you, Thoin, are a non-experimenter. I'm simply responding to your comment about many people (unimaginatively?) sticking with (boring?) traditions.
P.S.S. Someone disagreed that PAV put M&Ms on his salad, then someone (the same person?) disagreed with my obvious joke about it. Yup, some grumpy disagree-er is at work in this thread; there are too many instances to be accidental scrolling disagrees. They could use their words to explain on the thread, maybe don't because they know we'd just laugh.
I know what your saying. I found hot sauce on my salad to be really good, but I also love hot sauce (for me always with a vinaigrette, nothing dairy).1 -

I always have hot sauce on my taco salad. It’s yummy.5 -
I think they're disagreeing to be ornery.

I'll try anything on a salad. Kar's has a snack mix of raisins, peanuts, m&m's and seeds that I'll throw in there once in a while (but it is high in calories) and I use cottage cheese almost exclusively for my dressing.3
-
I have an unopened party size bag of plain m&ms under my desk at work.
Just sayin'....

The disagree trolls are on this thread🤷🏻♀️
3 people disagreed with the OP which says "my calories today came from these foods." I'm trying to figure out what grounds a person could disagree with that on. Maybe that word doesn't mean what a lot of people think it means.
Now I have to go watch that movie or the quote is going to be stuck in my head all day.6 -

Inconceivable!
Anyway, I think some people "disagree" about the premise or idea behind a post. For example, "my calories came from these foods" is not something you would disagree with based on the truthfulness of the statement unless you thought the poster was lying. But, if someone disagreed with the concept that all of a person's daily calories SHOULD come from those foods, then maybe they hit disagree.
I don't know....I gave up figuring people out a long time ago.

Maybe people have a hard time distinguishing disagree from dislike or disapprove, dunno. The amount of disagrees on people’s personal experiences on these forums is baffling sometimes.
I might still try M&M’s as salad topping. I’ve tried and loved dried cranberries, fresh blueberries, fresh strawberries, all kinds of fruit imaginable in a salad. I like something sweet in there. The one thing my salads don’t often have is lettuce.9 -
What a FUN thought and experiment...M&M's on Salad...then someone put a picture of an M&M Salad....Thank you for the topic!! I enjoyed. I am allergic to chocolate...but LOVE M&Ms. I am at 31 days Processed Sugar Free!! I am a Sugar Addict...and had to do something drastic. Even reading this topic did not lure me to my OWN M&M's jar I am hiding in the Pantry.! Thanks again!!:):) 4

I think that once you are heavily disagreed with once it just follows you forever (and you might as well just embrace collecting them ...)
I had someone disagree with a question I asked yesterday. How do you disagree with someone asking a question?7 -

I *almost* hit disagree because I don't think you can hide something if you know where it is!
I think I might have to take my bag of m&ms to my car so I'm not tempted to open it.2 -
Once upon a time I was of the camp that fruit did not belong in lettuce based salads. Have since enjoyed apples, raisins, dried cherries/cranberries, mandarin oranges and more. So since I can see that 'sweet' can work in a salad, it is not totally far-fetched that M&Ms would NOT work also.4

I remember somebody running for a position in NYC government a few years ago. She admitted to eating and enjoying blueberry bagels. Nobody voted for her.
You've seen the original ghostbusters, right? Remember "don't cross the streams?" Or pandemonium will be unleashed, dogs and cats living together, stuff like that? That's a metaphor for not mixing sweet and savory foods. Except for dark chocolate pretzels. These are the first two commandments that Moses lost when he dropped the tablets.11 -

I think "hide" was not a good word. Rather, just out of the way...since I am not tempted...no need to hide...thanks for the correction 3 -

LOL I actually didn't even really mean it as one. I have an overflow of chocolate and cookies (but not chocolate cookies...weird) and have them in my closet...out of the way. But I always make my way to them when I'm not ready yet.3 -

I’m here to tell you that it is very possible to indulge and still stay within your goals. I over indulged and still made it. I did go to bed hungry but not hangry. I stuck to mainstream foods today. I don’t know if I’d recommend the large shareable bag of m&ms though.

I enjoy mixing flavors and I have had sweet things in my salads many times before - mostly fruits. I had never thought of M&Ms but I'll be damned if I'm not going to try that as soon as possible!
And to all the disagreers out there, knock yourselves out. This one is on the house.

I think chocolate covered raisins would be good too.3

Maybe we need to start thinking about ourselves as minor online celebrities, since someone cares enough to follow us around to disagree. This is a joke, obviously, but getting random disagrees on every single comment does seem like there’s someone out there stalking and ready to hit the button. Might as well embrace it, like you said.7
