Overall, I thought this salad was pretty good. I would make it again, but I would probably make a few changes to the dressing.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, but not as visually appealing.

This salad was just okay. I thought the dressing was a little bland.

I'm not a huge fan of pork, but this salad changed my mind. The flavors were so well-balanced and the pork was cooked to perfection.

This salad was absolutely delicious! The combination of the sweet mandarins, the savory pork, and the crunchy vegetables was perfect. I will definitely be making this again.
