I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, but this salad was still really good. The dressing was light and flavorful, and the chicken was tender and moist.

Not a fan of this salad. The chicken was tough and the dressing was too sweet.

I thought this salad was just okay. The chicken was a bit dry and the dressing was a little bland.
