this sounds good until you get to the prunes for me too! Maybe I'll make it and leave out the prunes.

Once again I am amazed at the food prejudice exhibited by Americans....prunes alone are not something I enjoy but when combined with other fruits the taste is changed. Try them in the salad....you will be surprised...!

I like the sweet taste of prunes too, I think people are scared of them...lol I enjoy them from time to time with no side effects :))
even a plain yogurt may go good with this..

I do the mayo from time to time, sounds wierd but really does not have much effect on the taste as some may think...hellmanns is a good canidate for this :)
