The Take

The Little Salad Bar Southwest Chopped Salad Kit starts with solid cabbage, romaine, kale and carrots but ruins it with a dressing that leads with canola and soybean oil.

Health signal buyers grab the kit for the produce flex while the pouch delivers the same ultra-processed sludge found in most bagged salads.

The Verdict

The vegetables deliver basic produce value but the dressing turns the whole thing into a seed oil bath with starches and gums on top.

Skip the kit. Buy a head of cabbage and olive oil — control the fat, skip the sludge.
