SERVING SUGGESTION
A KEY INGREDIENT
Sweet salad cubes provide a bit of crunch and lots of flavor.
WHITE MEAT CHICKEN VS. DARK MEAT
White meat, found in the breasts and wings, contains about 10% red fibers. This part of the chicken is lean and mild in flavor and dries out easily if overcooked.
Dark meat chicken contains around 50% red fibers and is found in chicken legs, which are juicy and tastier.
Mt. Olive Sweet Salad Cubes add color and delicious flavor. The salad cubes are cut larger and are crunchier than sweet relish.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SWEET SALAD CUBES & SWEET RELISH?
Relish and sweet salad cubes are condiments made with diced cucumbers, diced red bell peppers and other ingredients.
They have a similar taste.
The difference is their textures. Sweet relish is smooth.
Salad cubes are made with a larger cut than relish, giving them a crunchier texture.
Sweet Salad Cubes (Back Label)
USE MAYO OR MIRACLE WHIP
WHAT IS MAYONNAISE?
Mayonnaise is a delicious combination of fat and water held in suspension by an egg. The egg works like a magnet, bonding the fat from the oil and the liquid from the vinegar (or lemon juice).
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), anything labeled as “mayonnaise” must contain 65% vegetable oil by weight.
WHAT IS MIRACLE WHIP?
Miracle Whip is sweeter and spicier than mayo.
When it comes to nutrition, Miracle Whip contains about half the fat and calories as compared to mayonnaise.
