There's a chunk of Flyover that calls anything with mayo "Salad" in the same way that Miracle Whip is a "Whipped Dressing" akin to a "Salad Dressing".

It's the sort of place where a casserole is a "Hot Dish" and putting marshmallows in an entree doesn't raise eyebrows.

salad is an umbrella term used for generic "stuff mixed together" usually involving different vegetables but not exclusively, you can have a pasta, or rice salad too.
calling a mayo and egg mix an egg salad is a bit of a stretch imho, but salad is not exclusively lettuce salad.

[Anonymous No.12528684]

sal·ad
/ˈsaləd/
noun
a cold dish of various mixtures of raw or cooked vegetables, usually seasoned with oil, vinegar, or other dressing and sometimes accompanied by meat, fish, or other ingredients.

salad (n.)

late 14c., from Old French salade (14c.), from Vulgar Latin *salata, literally "salted," short for herba salata "salted vegetables" (vegetables seasoned with brine, a popular Roman dish), from fem. past participle of *salare "to salt," from Latin sal (genitive salis) "salt" (from PIE root *sal- "salt")

Cheese stuffed breadsticks sound good. We always had a salad, sandwich and soup bar as an alternative to the hot meal, but it did suck when all they served was stuffed shells for three weeks straight. Like who dropped the ball and only ordered 3 weeks worth of shitty frozen stuffed shells? It's hard to complain knowing what public schools serve though, so I kept my mouth shut and made a sandwich.

No matter what heritage someone has, there will always be people critical of it, especially here. I realize that the French and Quebecois can be lazy, entitled, snobbish cunts, but I'm proud of my own family and ancestors who were many generations of extremely hardworking, god fearing, farmers. When my grandmother moved to the US as a child, she said it was like heaven on earth, because they finally had clean running water (I assume in the new home or from a spicket just outside), an outhouse, more blankets, a radio, and a solid roof over their heads. She never finished high school and learned English through immersion. She and my grandfather worked their asses off to provide for my father, aunts, and uncles and were very responsible with their money for savings and retirement. My other set of grandparents were no longer farmers like their previous generations had been but worked extremely hard starting out dirt poor and ended up quite successful.

Not the anon you responded to, but I checked the ingredients in my store bought mayo after reading in a different thread that American mayo is usually made with the entire egg rather that the yolk, and it was made with just yolk. But, it's specifically "real mayo" with cage free eggs. If it doesn't say real mayo on it, then it probably uses whole eggs, and therefore isn't traditional mayonnaise. I'd say you are correct that a large portion of Americans buy whole egg mayonnaise, though it's been a strongly growing trend for quite a while now, like over the past two decades, for consumers to want the real stuff with fewer additives.
