American dudes, learn how to make a salad, Mediterranean style!
Lettuce - in pieces large or small, as you like it
Tomato - in slices
Cucumber - cut longitudinally, and then sliced. Some people peel it first, some don't... some just peel some stripes and leave the rest for your tummy to handle.
carrots - in very thin chips
Onion - not too much, in half rings.
Add a bit of olive oil, max 0.5% acidity.
When you use tomato, add coarse salt, If not, then use fine salt.
scramble and scramble.
Should look something like this, apart from that lemmon, it's useless.

Serve as side dish to some nice juicy grilled steak, no chips, no rice, no pasta, no nothing but steak (no stupid sauces like mayos and crap) and salad. hmmmmmmmmm
juicy steak... crunchy fresh salad... perfect!

Oh I don't know, I liked him in "Some Like It Hot" (one of my all-time favourite films, by the way).
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Still haven't got used to me, have you?  Don't worry, I'm like athlete's foot; I grow on you.

Eh, I preferred him in The Odd Couple and How to Murder Your Wife.

I dunno, looks quite nice to me. We often have salads that look not dissimilar, though often with extra radishes, hardboiled eggs, sliced ham, grated extra-mature cheddar (yum!) and, if we're feeling adventurous, crisps.
I fancy a salad now. At nearly half one on the morning.
Yes, I agree Rev, How to Murder Your Wife was a damn good film as well. The gloppitta-gloppitta machine and all that. Bittorrent time, I think, if it wasn't unlawful. So I won't.

Tangent: In Vienna I ordered what sounded like 'schnitzel mit schalade'. I received a humungous ( and delicious) veal schnitznel with a handful of iceberg lettuce,very fresh.
I also ordered 'eine bier bitte' and received a full litre (2 pints),which made me quite jolly and my (now ex) wife go all chicken-lipped.
The moral:Never travel with your wife and never marry anyone who has the habit of going all chicken-lipped.
