SALAD DAYS

In search of freshness, ranting! Lately, this DesperateAngloHousewife has become rather despondent at the lack of decent salads. I am finding salads either totally lacking originality, misrepresentative of their promised content, limp with age or dripping and greasy, floating around in industrial vinaigrettes. I am on the warpath! Like alot of other desperateanglohousewives, I kid myself into thinking that ordering salads will be a great way to induce nymph-like slimness. I would of course do better by spending more money on scarey support knickers and togs with inner panelling!! Too many salads are full of "bad" ingredients...sweet corn,pre-cooked potato chunks,croutons, high salt content charcuterie, etc - all of which have the cunning habit of sliding down to thighs and waistelines. Other ingredients can be simply cast as "sad"....industrial vinaigrettes, processed cheeses, precooked saline-injected chicken breast, nasty shrivelled bacon-bits ...
