not real fussed... it was ok, but as someone who doesn't like dressing and therefore didn't have any, perhaps it is the dressing that makes it a meal. aside from that, it was a little bit of a flavour overload- perhaps the hot/cold combination doesn't work so well?? could just be me, but i don't think i'd bother with this again.
