This is the worst salad I've ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

This salad is a waste of time and ingredients. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out terrible.

The salad was too oily for my taste. I would recommend using less olive oil or omitting it altogether.

I wasn't a fan of the texture of the wheat berries. I think I would have preferred to use quinoa or another grain.

I found the salad to be a bit bland. I added some extra lemon juice and salt and it improved the flavor.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover wheat berries. I also added some chopped walnuts for extra crunch.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out amazing! It's a great make-ahead dish, as the flavors meld together even better after a few hours in the fridge. I served it as a side dish with grilled chicken and it was a hit with my family.

This wheat berry salad is a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The chewy wheat berries are perfectly complemented by the briny olives, tangy feta, and aromatic garlic. I especially love the addition of fresh herbs, which add a pop of freshness
