I found that the salad was a bit bland. I added a pinch of salt and pepper to taste and it was much better.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the dressing next time.

I'm not a huge fan of cumin, so I substituted it with ground coriander. It was still delicious.
