This salad was a disaster! The gazpacho dressing was too runny, and the macaroni was mushy. I had to throw the whole thing away.

I thought this salad was just okay. The gazpacho dressing was a bit too tangy for my taste, and the macaroni was a little overcooked.

This salad was a refreshing change from the usual macaroni salad. The gazpacho dressing was light and flavorful, and the vegetables were crisp and fresh.
