Wait why would you even put a sweetener on salad out of all things?

[–] frickineh 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure. Salad dressing, maybe? But the Guardian article was talking about recipes having like, 1/4 cup of Splenda, which sounds insane for salad no matter where you put it.

I mean maybe it's a culture difference but I can't imagine salad having sweet stuff in it. It just doesn't make sense.

American food tends to be way sweeter than anywhere else I've ever been, so yeah, probably cultural.
