Quite a few ideas on the HB are quite clearly word salad.
Salad on its own is rather boring and unpalatable.
There is a need for the HB to make available a range of verbal
condiments, dressings and other items to garnish word salad and
make it more attractive to a jaded palate.
This is
not a call-for-list. It is a suggestion that when annotating
word
salad, the complementary nature of the annotation is indicated.

Greek-flavored, naturally. |

If I remember rightly, the longest recorded word in classical greek
is the name of a salad (consisting of all the ingredients
concatenated). I don't suppose that's what you meant, though. |

No, because it's not the salad itself (besides, that would be [m-f-d, recipe]). |
|
|
It's the stuff you add to a salad to make it more attractive, like adding vodka to fruit juice. |

Mmm ... vodka salad. I mean, people have done vodka jellies.
Maybe iced vodka would go into a gazpacho on a hot day, though
that's technically a soup. A bloody mary is almost a vodka salad
dressing. And if you dialled down the sweetness, you might
dress a potato salad with a sort of white russian. |
