Did You Know? The word "salad" comes from the Latin word "sal" meaning salt, because the ancient Romans used to eat raw vegetables with salt and olive oil. The Caesar salad was actually invented in Tijuana, Mexico in 1924 by an Italian immigrant chef named Caesar Cardini — not in ancient Rome as many people think! The world's largest salad weighed over 19,000 kilograms.
