Any vinigrette style dressing is usually an 'ok' choice.
Beware of anything 'creamy' though, it usually packs a huge calorie punch.

mmm salad dressing. Its good, but you gotta be careful. Just check the ingredients and how much oil etc is in it. It can really add to the calorie count of an otherwise really healthy salad. My favourite home made salad dressing is just olive oil and lemon juice mrgreen its very tangy

I think the point with salad dressings and even cream dressings, is that you don't use too much.

It's a shame that we even need them. In Italy, they don't give dressing with salads because you totally don't need them the flavor of the vegetables is so perfect that to put dressing on would be stupid. Here our vegetables are sprayed with chemicals, bred for their durability (in transport) and just in general not good. They're picked green and gassed to get their colour ''ripe'' before being put out in stores. It's just sad.

Salad is extremely healthy with any dressing. There are a lot of good vitamins and anti-oxidants in there. However some dressings might be fatning and full of sodium.

I don't see how that would taste good on a salad xd
Fish oil is very healthy, but, it is PURE FAT. There is such a thing as good fat but you can still get too much of it. Any kind of vinegar based dressing is usually very low in fat. Don't just pick "light" dressings though, as sometimes the ingredients they use to make them low cal or low fat can be very unhealthy. Just take a second to read the ingredients and fat and calorie content of different dressings next time you're in a grocery store.

When I get Subway, I'll get the sweet oignon dressing instead of ranch or other fatty dressings. They advertise 6 grams of fat for many of the subs, but that doesn't count the dressing.
