@Smersh The Caesar salad is believed to have been invented in the 1920s by Italian chef Caesar Cardini. The salad was created in Tijuana, Mexico, where Cardini owned a restaurant. According to popular lore, the Caesar salad was invented on July 4, 1924, when Cardini whipped up the dish with the ingredients he had on hand for some hungry diners during a busy weekend at his restaurant. The salad was originally made with romaine lettuce, croutons, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and black pepper. Today, the Caesar salad has become a classic dish served in restaurants around the world with many variations of the original recipe.
