Thanks for posting this, Stacey! It is a a Toledo tradition that I had often growing up. Betty was the founder of Soup and Such restuarant in Toledo and she started marketing the dressing in 1980. You can still buy it at many grocers in the area. I didnt know that this salad was a local thing until my husband landscaped her son's house and brought home some of the dressing with her bio on the label. Betty passed away but her salad lives on forever!

Thank you for being true to the recipe. I remember this well, my brother was in the same grade school class as Betty's grandson. Thought this was just a Toledo thing. Just recently got a craving for it. Went to the grocery store, where I remember seeing the jars on the shelves not long ago. The dressing wasn't there I hope it is still available. I grew up on seeing those jars on grocery shelves and eating a salad that I knew the family that created. Still remember the huge snowman that they helped make and the picture in the Blade.
