    Many years ago when I was a teenager, I worked at a produce market owned by a Greek and Greek workers. At lunch, they’d prepare a giant Greek salad on huge tin trays. It included tomates , olives , cucumbers, feta, onions - no taking the bite out- what ever for????? vinegar, oil, and slices of French bread. We’d sop the bread into the delicious salad ! Wow. I’ll never forget. Meal fit for a king! BTW…lettuce???

    I don't know why people take so much trouble to remove the bite in things like onion, garlic, beetroot, etc. I love them just as is, especially when they are being combined with other stuff in a salad!

    Yes! This is an authentic Greek Salad (Horiatiki). I spent two months backpacking through Greece - mainly the Greek Islands - as a young man and had a lot of horiatiki. I just shake my head when I go to a restaurant in the U.S. and their "Greek Salads" have lettuce and avocado in them. EDIT: I just had this for lunch with pita bread and hummus on the side. Absolutely delicious!
