Thoughts on a Salad

I don't so much partake of salad, but Mrs. TANBI has a request for those of you that might run restaurants out there. Today at Red Robin she got a salad which appeared to be a bowl of lettuce, cheese, and tortilla strips.

Upon further examination some of what looked like cheese was actually carrot shavings.

And yes, we know about the whole tomato thing - although in all fairness there are still plenty of tomatoes available.

Back in the day when she was a vegan we once went to Applebee's only to find that there wasn't a single thing on the whole menu she could order, including a salad.

So here's the request: If you run a restaurant, and you are going to have salad on the menu, and there is anything in the salad that isn't a fruit or a vegetable, then please indicate those items on the menu.

And Red Robin, why not send someone across the street for a cucumber and maybe some mandarin oranges. It's really embarrassing to have to pay $5 for a bowl of lettuce (and should be even more so to make someone else do it).
