@raymondveracruz: it’s just lettuce going to mexico to try a 100 year old salad on its birthday is still one of my favorite culinary experiences. yes, it was created in mexico by Caesar, an italian immigrant. yes, they still make it tableside, which can be gimmicky but it served a purpose. and yes, they don’t cut the lettuce leaves and that’s because it was originally intended as a finger food. today, the Caesar salad is one of the most iconic salads in America, and it was all due to a busy 4th of July weekend, the Prohibition, a huge influx of American tourists in Tijuana, an almost empty pantry in a Mexican-Italian restaurant, and the brilliant innovation of an industrious immigrant happy birthday, Caesar Salad #caesarsalad #mexicanfood #foodhistory #italianfood #4thofjuly

that looks so annoyingly to eat😭 Or maybe it's just me that likes smaller bites because this seems hard to eat. Like you take one leaf in the fork and chew it like a rabbit then get the whole piece of bread and do the same.. what happened to crutons? 😭 I don't want to cut the salad like it's steak.
