The salad was good, but it wasn't anything special. I probably won't make it again.

This salad was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still good. Next time I'll use less chili powder.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but this salad was still really good. The dressing was flavorful and the salad was very filling.
