Mozzerella sticks need to be RIGHT out of the oven/fryer... otherwise they taste like ass and I'd rather eat a salad.
One of these days I'm going to make a salad for everyone in the house that IS the meal.
I'm talking lettuce with onions, carrots, peas, pepperoni, ham, (salami too if I feel up to it) chunked hard boiled eggs, skinned/sliced cucumbers, green peppers, croutons, bacon bits, your choice of dressing and tomatoes (for everyone else, I hate tomatoes).
I used to make salads like that when I worked at the pizza place. It was filling as hell.
