Review of Smith & Wollensky Thousand Island Dressing

I like trying different salad dressings, like anyone else really. I have spent a few dollars on supposed gourmet salad dressings, only to find that they tasted repulsive, and I wished I could return it for my money back.

More recently though, I came across a gourmet salad dressing; Smith & Wollensky Thousand Island Dressing. Normally this bottle of gourmet salad dressing will run you nearly $11.00 for one bottle. I picked it up for just $2.99 at Marshall's and hoped for the best. It would either win me over, or end up in the garbage pail.

Appearance:
 
What was really different about Smith & Wollensky Thousand Island Dressing, was its obvious addition of spices and vegetables that you could clearly see inside of the bottle. It looked a lot more hearty, and seemed to include a bunch of extra tid bits that your usual creamy thousand island dressing does not have.

Taste:
 
I cut myself up a salad as I usually would, and added a small dab of Smith & Wollensky Thousand Island Dressing to the mix. I only used a little on the side though to get a taste test of the dressing. If I liked it I would add more, if not, well... to the garbage can the bottle would go.

Surprisingly, Smith & Wollensky Thousand Island Dressing was incredible. It had a delicious tangy flavor, with a nice sugary, but not too sugary tint to it. To better put it, this thousand island salad dressing became one of the best dressings I have ever tried, period.

The dressing is made up of mayonnaise, chili sauce, onions and some Smith & Wollensky secret spices. You can taste each individual fresh spice though, only your mouth cannot focus on just one, combined what you have is a really delicious salad dressing, worthy of being called gourmet.

Overall:
 
I wish the price was more affordable, because it is unlikely I will find this one again for such a low price at Marshall's.

Would I spend $11.00 on a bottle of this dressing again though?
 
The answer is yes. It is seriously that good.
