This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it would be better with more seasoning or if the shrimp were cooked in a different way.

This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think it would be better with less cayenne pepper or if the cayenne pepper was replaced with a different spice.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think it would be better with less honey or if the honey was replaced with a different sweetener.

This salad was a bit too oily for my taste. I think it would be better with less olive oil or if the oil was drained off before serving.
