In case you are not familiar with Publix – it is a chain of supermarkets in the southeastern United States with stores in GA, FL, SC, TN, and AL. I did not plan to discuss regional or store-brands but I just happened to have a bottle of this dressing and since I never want to throw anything out I decided to try this for a few days just to see how it stacks up. In a nutshell, this is not a bad dressing, in fact, it is pretty fair. I won’t go much farther than that. My first impression was from the smell and it smells like all other Thousand Island dressings – like pickle relish. This gave me hope at the very beginning and I was only slightly disappointed. I used this dressing for a week or so at lunch and didn’t come away feeling nauseated by the dressing.
It is very thick and coats your salad well and you can probably get by with the recommended serving size (2Tbsp) and it is on the low side in calories (40) and fat-free so it gets a nod from me with just that.
This is not an overpowering dressing by any stretch of the imagination and while eating it often seems hard to taste. Rather than a strong taste this has a pretty bland or indistinct taste. I would describe the taste as being simple rather than complex which is what I prefer. When I finish my salad I would find myself asking “now what was it I just used?” Although I will not look forward to buying this in the future I won’t mind using it until it is all gone.
