I would not recommend this salad. The flavors just didn't work well together.

I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This salad was a bit too sweet for me, but I think that's just a personal preference. I would recommend using less sugar in the dressing next time.

The combination of shrimp, fruit, and salad was a bit odd to me at first, but it turned out to be really delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.
