This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

I've made this salad twice now and both times it's been a disaster. I don't recommend this recipe.

I found this salad to be a bit too sweet. I would reduce the amount of pineapple next time.

This salad is a little bland for my taste. I would add some more spices next time.
