The approach of ordering each component of the salad separately to mix things up and make different meals over several days was not well received by some people. Commenters fretted about the environmental cost of all the different disposable containers, as well as pointing out how they could put an extra financial strain on restaurants that were smaller businesses. They also wondered if the move would mean unnecessary stress for the worker assembling the order.

A lot of viewers failed to see what the big deal was, claiming that the extra money and labor required to make the meal in this way was either negligible or non-existent. No doubt most restaurants that provide a decent level of service would be able to complete this request with minimal issues. In the end, it seemed like many commenters were more interested in the backlash than in the tip itself, leading many to gloss over one of the most important conclusions to take from the video. Who orders takeout and decides that they want a salad?
Woman Starts Controversy With Canny Life Hack For Ordering Takeout Salad
For those of us who have perfected our favorite order, there's something uniquely personal about how we choose our takeout. With just about every type of cuisine imaginable, there are countless tweaks that can be made to elevate a good meal into a great one.
Sometimes, this is simply a matter of individual taste. Other times, people decide to become intrepid menu explorers, searching for the best flavor combinations or supposedly secret items.
There's also a subset of takeout orderers who are obsessed with getting the most they can for their money. While ordering in might be a big indulgence, there's no reason to say that we can't try and be smart in how we choose to do it (hangover permitting).
Social media is full of tips and tricks on how to make both your food and money go further, and some of these are more successful than others. They say that rich people don't become rich through thoughtless spending, and it would seem like @richladyproblems is proof of that. She recently demonstrated this through a viral TikTok. In it she revealed how she orders in family-sized salads to make several meals to last her through the week — presumably so she can recreate the Woman Laughing Alone With Salad meme at a moment's notice. Her unorthodox method split opinion among her viewers.
