What is your favorite type of salad dressing?

As I enjoy my turkey cobb salad, the foodie in me provokes me to ask this question to the community. What is your favorite type of salad dressing and why? I LOVE Bleu Cheese, Balsamic Vinaigrette, and Italian; in that order. Bleu Cheese in my opinion is a game changer to both buffalo wings and salad, as well as any other dish. So, whatcha got RP and why!!?? Talk to me!

I vary it up based on the meal I'm eating. I go Bleu Cheese with beef meals. Normally do Italian or Oil & Vinegar with pasta dishes.

Like you, I think Bleu is a game changer. It's one of those food items that you appreciate when you're older. Like dark chocolate and bread. Not everything needs to be sweet.

A fine vinaigrette is good (yes, that even means Olive Garden's), Bleu Cheese, Ranch, and when it comes to "French" dressing, I go Western. Well, to be frank, I tend to mix my dressings. But that's me, and I'm told that I aint right.

Oil and vinegar light pepper.
The Italian dressing is to heavy on oil for me.

Bleu Cheese, the more tangy and sharper the better.

My taste in salad dressing seems to change quite frequently. Currently I've been enjoying honey mustard (the tangy/spicy type, not so much the sweeter type).

It depends upon the altitude. Seriously. However, my favorite dressing at home is a combination of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard

Italian is about the only one I can usually enjoy. I'm also not much of a salad person though.

I use all different types of dressings. Depends what i'm in the mood for. Currently have Cucumber Ranch and Thousand Island (wife's fave) in the fridge. Always have vinegar and olive oil available. I pretty much like any dressing, i'm easy to please...lol
