I hate salad, thus I rarely use it unless it's maybe Italian dressing for a roasted chicken. But almost every meal I cook, my mom bitches about making a salad, which is going to have next to zero nutritional value, so it just winds up being delivery mechanism for salad dressing.
Here's the salad dressing problem: when 4 people sit down to dinner - at least one of whom will not eat salad (probably two of them) - how many bottles of salad dressing do you set out?
My father's answer: five.
