What’s that? Why are there so many people hovering over that table over there? Ohh, of course! Someone made Crowded Salad… the leafy green goodness that gets people to gather. Just look at those layers: crunchy lettuce, sweet carrots, tangy onions, and crispy cucumbers. You see the creamy dressing? It’s so good. And the tender peas, salty bacon, and smooth cheese can’t dare be overlooked, either! Now you know any time you see a big ‘ole crowd from now on, it’s probably not a celebrity sighting or a parade, the chances are higher it’s a group grabbing at some Crowded Salad!
