Death by Salad
Wednesday, October 29, 2008 at 11:59AM Rabbit food will kill you. It claims more victims everyday. I stumbled upon an article claiming that 55% of consumers order a salad when dining out. The number is far higher than it used to be and shows no signs of falling. Is it that salad is the only affordable choice left on the menu? Are vegetarians sucking souls out of more and more people?
One of the issues is that people are ordering salads to be healthy. I am living proof that salads are in fact unhealthy- I maintain my 5% body fat figure by not ordering them. Years ago it was really easy to do this, to not order salads, simply because they all sucked. Chopped iceberg or a mesculin mix with a cliche dressing that was conceived hundreds of years ago is not enticing. However as time goes on, and salads improve, the obesity epidemic increases.
