I made myself forget that there are anchovies in Caesar dressing...Thanks for reminding me.

50% of people who don't like caesar salad are unable to spell it. FACT!

Classic! I like a few anchovies on top, actually, but then again I guess we've already established that I sometimes enjoy salty things. There's something about the slight tartness of the dressing and the coolness and wateriness of the lettuce that sets a really good backdrop for the taste of anchovies. (Ha: that makes me think maybe anchovies and celery would be a really great snack combination!)

So classic that you can see how someone might get the false impression that it's a dud. Indeed, you could almost forgive that person, even though they're wrong.

Waldorf salad = classic up until age 12 or so, then dud-ish. I always thought it was so sophisticated (and I didn't even know about the Waldorf-Astoria connection, just the fact of eating a "salad" with walnuts and apples in it sent me over).

Caesar = classic, though frequently appears in dud versions, as noted above. Adding chicken is not original, I believe, but that's a classic update, makes it a meal.

CLASSIC. It's my favorite salad, which I know makes me not very interesting and not very daring in my tastes, but still. It's a fucking Caesar salad.
