My thoughts:
I find this to be a mixed issue. On one hand, I've come to really love salads with lots of delicious ingredients, and I like that there are a variety of different kinds with completely different flavor combinations. I used to not like salads growing up because the ones you saw were usually pretty basic, so the more diverse offerings have encouraged me to order salads more often. On the other hand, it really is extremely expensive, I've seen some $20 salads, which costs almost as much as an expensive steak at a nice restaurant. It's prompted me to start making salads at home, though buying ingredients can still be quite expensive. It's interesting to me that purchasing a nice salad has become more of a treat that I splurge for myself on. The video brings up some good points about healthy foods becoming too expensive for poorer areas. It seems really unusual that healthy food would be more associated with wealth in the U.S.
While this video specifically covers America, I'm curious if folks from other countries have seen a similar rise in fancy expensive salads as well!
