At the risk of starting an international flame war , having come from an English background I was not aware that there was such a thing as salad dressing until I went to Greece as a teenager and they were putting oil and vinegar and stuff on their salads.

Nevertheless I have enjoyed salads all my life and the English method is:

Arrange in a 'cyclical' fashion on the plate and just enjoy. No need to cover it with a sauce.

Internationally a common criticism of the USA's obesity 'crisis' (and of course our similar crisis here in Australia) is to poke fun at Americans who :
