Field Greens & Goat Cheese Salad
What You Should Know
You'd find this in the grocery store’s prepared foods or grab-and-go cooler — an easy pick for a weekend lunch, picnic, or light dinner. It reads as wholesome and slightly indulgent (creamy goat cheese, sweet cranberries, caramelized pecans), but the packaged vinaigrette, sugared dried fruit, caramel-coated nuts and additives like xanthan gum point to industrial processing that creates a glossy, clingy texture and longer shelf life, suggesting a more processed product.
