    Ha ha. I had a gf from oklahoma whose mom made an old family recipe, “Pea Salad”. Of course I’d never heard of pea salad. It is cubes of cheddar cheese, chopped iceberg lettuce, canned peas, and Miracle Whip.

      I’m from Germany and I know a “rice salad” that is basically the same recipe, but instead of cheddar and lettuce, you put in rice (obviously cooked) and tuna. And a little bit of vinegar before mixing it, covering the bowl, and throwing it into the fridge until cool.

      That said, most people I know, including myself, think it slaps.
