Frog Eye Salad

I've got a recipe for something that looks very much like the second one. It's my step sister in law's  - she calls it acini de pepe. It's made with acini pasta; I'm not sure if what your picture has is that or maybe medium tapioca.

No that’s it! It’s made with that pasta

Ok, so apparently the definition of salad has expanded over the years to include basically everything.

This explains how those salad restaurants stay in business.

watergate is pistachio pudding and whipped cream. Frog eye is like a pineapple base and whipped cream 

That’s fascinating.

Cranberry Fluff Salad cranberry fluff salad. 

I love anything cranberry, but I can do without the nuts. (I don't like them in Waldorf salad, either; it's  a texture thing.)

I been eating more salads as of late, mostly making them myself. Made a smoked sausage salad with a spring mix and orange and honey dressing. Fantastic. Also had a cajun chicken remoulade salad today. Will have both again. 

Ambrosia is great but I have had such a hard time finding good ones out in the wild. I usually don't bother making my own anymore. 
Girlfriend's family makes a Watergate salad for the holidays. It's not bad. 

I also prefer Japanese potato salad to ones we usually see in the US.
