What Your Favorite Salad Dressing Says About You
Lilapud


Let's face it, salad is not number one on your list of favorite foods. The thought of having a plate full of vegetables makes your stomach churn and your face grimace. If you could get away with never eating salad, you most likely would; but, many restaurants push side salads as a way to keep their customers content between appetizers and entrées. The only thing that makes eating these obligatory vegetables more bearable is salad dressing. What's your favorite say about you?


Ranch

You're liked by a lot of people and versatile - like your favorite dressing - and you're not afraid of calories. Your friends tell you how bad ranch is for you, saying that it consists purely of fat, but you don't care. You're happy with your body and can't imagine a better way to make your vegetables edible. You prefer to have a side of salad with your dressing rather than vice versa. When eating out, you usually have to ask your server to bring extra dressing with your salad, but they never bring you enough. You're not ashamed to send them back to bring you more liquid deliciousness. Once you've gotten enough ranch, you douse your salad with it, making it into a ranch-veggie soup. You believe that more is more, and that more ranch is better.


Thousand Island

You're unconventional, unique, and sweet. You have a certain something that no one else can replicate. You're not exactly sure what's in thousand island; but, you're not picky and it tastes good, so you eat it. You use a moderate amount of dressing on your salads, because you believe in quality over quantity. You're not quite one in a million, but being one in a thousand isn't bad.


Vinaigrette

You're unpredictable, a little bit pretentious, and certainly driven by good eating habits. You request a complicated variation of vinaigrette at every restaurant you go to and are extremely disappointed when they don't have it. Sorry, but they've never even heard of the light mango berry balsamic vinaigrette you rave on and on about. You're pickier than the other salad dressing fanatics, and simply can't settle for Italian or oil and vinegar. You order vinaigrette because you feel obligated to make the health-conscious choice, plus it's tasty enough to spruce up your salad. Your refined palate is hard to please, so it might be best to bring your own dressing with you.


Honey Mustard

You're a child at heart. You appear in adult form; however, you've refused to give up your favorite childhood dipping sauce, even when it comes to salad eating. The sweetness of the honey and the tanginess of the mustard can disguise even the most dreadful vegetables as candy coated treats. Like honey mustard, you're great on your own; but, you also work well with others. When ordering out, you try to sound fancy around your adult friends by calling it "honey dijon". Deep down, you know that it's just plain old honey mustard, and you're just fine with that.


Blue Cheese

You don't have tastebuds.


Italian

You're zesty, sassy, and adventurous. You bring the life to the party like Italian dressing brings life to your dead veggies. You're full of surprises and sometimes you come off as overpowering. Italian dressing is as sexy as the nationality and allows your taste buds to frolic in the flavors of foreign lands. You can throw your favorite dressing on just about anything, turning chicken, salads and noodles into dishes full of zest.


Caesar

You're simple and don't like to wait around for things. Same goes for Caesar salads. They have few ingredients of them - only one of which is actually a vegetable - and they're ready to eat when they arrive at the table. You're good at improvising, just like the inventor of Caesar dressing, and are extremely resourceful. Some people accuse you of playing with your food, but you have to stab the salad multiple times to get those dang croutons on your fork.



No Dressing

You want your vegetables to taste like dirt? Seriously, just pick a dressing.


You "don't eat salad" or are "allergic to lettuce"

Quit bullshitting us. We can all agree that salad is terrible. Just admit that you hate it.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
