What is salad?
This is rather a strange question; what is salad?
I can't seem to find any info on the breakdown of salad, such as how carbohydrate counts and such. Of course it is a vegetable, but when I come to think of it, I have never really been concerned of the carbohydrate count of vegetables... hah.
I've been eating salads more often due to a pickup station at my school that makes great salads, but I'm not sure how nutriet packed salad really is. Maybe I will throw down a single-scoop shake with the salad I consume almost daily?

i don't really think you need to start counting the calories in lettuce.
Some people get lost in thought because it's such unfamiliar territory. -G. Behn

No, of course not... that would be kind of rediculous. Originally Posted by The13ig13adWolf

So essentially, it was my PPWO meal, but it just felt like it was missing the nutrients I was looking for. But which nutrients was the question that got me interested... are they carbs or a carb that just doesn't really count due to the GI level.

Definetly hear ya on that. I had a "Chef Salad", consisting of ham slices, turkey slices, cucumbers/tomatoes and some peppers mixed in all over lettuce. It even had a half an egg in it. The dressing I just happened to use was fat free dressing, but the calories still add up. Originally Posted by IainDaniel

Balslamic Vinegar is a great subsitute for otherwise moderately high calorie dressings.
