Deluxe German Potato Salad image

I make this salad for all occasions-it goes well with any kind of meat. I often take this salad to potlucks, and there's never any left over. The celery, carrots and dry mustard are a special touch not usually found in traditional German potato salad. -Betty Perkins, Hot Springs, Arkansas

I didn't like the taste of this potato salad. The dressing was too tangy for my taste.

This recipe is too complicated. There are too many ingredients and steps involved.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potato salad turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I love the addition of bacon in this recipe. It gives the potato salad a nice smoky flavor. I also like that the dressing is not too heavy. It's just the right amount of tangy and creamy.
