I love the McDonald's Grilled Chicken Caesar Salads, but before I eat them, I have to sit there and pick out all the little pieces of greens and leaves that look like somebody went out and picked from a field.
Especially those purple things
Anyone else have fave foods from restaurants that you have to pick this and that out before you'll eat it? Or am I just weird? lol
I have to take tomatos off of everything... I absolutely hate those guys.
I love tomatoes
I grow my own every year.
This reminds me of my friend, Kim. She hates onions. And anytime we'd go get lunch at the local Chinese place, she'd order wonton soup because she loves it so much, but this place puts sliced green onion in their soup. So she'd sit there and pick every single one of them out before eating it.
The things that look like they are from a field are called field greens. They are actually very tasty and have the same nutrition that other greens do. I love them.
The only thing I take out of salads is the cucumber, because it repeats on me for the next few hours. Since my favourite is a Greek salad, I always have to pick them out and give them to my husband.

I think they're horrible. I tried leaving them in once, saying okay, this time I'm going to just go ahead and eat them and I couldn't do it.
I'm limited when it comes to salad greens. I only like iceberg lettuce (yeah yeah, I know, not much nutritional value, but I care about calories) and fresh baby spinach. Romaine and all those other lettuces? Yuk.

I thought I was the only person who hated onions! I like the flavor onions give to things (tomato sauce, hamburgers cooked in onions, etc.) but just cannot stand the texture of biting into an onion piece. I'm trying to get uset to it, but I'd much rather pick them out or eat around them than actually eat them!
Location: Connecticut, but next year I plan on going to college in Colorado.....We shall see!!!

Spinach salads are pretty awsome, and put all the fixings you love on a bed of spianch and BAM! Plus spinach doesnt have a strange texture like other veggies!!
I don't like the arugla (sp) but most of the other leaf lettuces and greens are really good and combined really give a salad a nice filling and great taste.
I don't like the field greens, either. To me, they just taste like grass! I don't mind romaine lettuce, though, and I really like spinach in my salads.
I also hate tomatoes, so I can understand the frequent "picking off" process I like a little bit of onion, but not too much, so I usually end up picking about half of the onion out of meals.
MAN, I am picky! But I am picky about things other than veggies--I eat very little variety of meat. You know how sometimes you get a burger at a restaurant, and the meat falls out from between the buns when you bite into it? I'm okay with that--I will eat just the bun with the veggies and condiments and leave half the beef on the plate
I pick off mushrooms off of anything that comes with them - some Lean Cuisine meats have mushrooms in the sauce and I can't STAND them. I do mushroom extraction beforehand.
Why do they put leaves in my salad?
