Answers: I mean it doesn't look like you are actually tossing a salad when you're doing it.

I bet you toss salad to get your significant other off, you dirty dirty individual!

Well when you mix a salad together you often toss the ingredients together with a spoon or two.

BUT if you are asking about rim jobs...who knows!

The real chefs toss a salad.

ewwww hahaha

The vegetarian society coined that phrase back in the mid 1800s. It's a little known fact that WAS the beginning of the vegetarian society.

Most people have gage reflex, well you might throw up when giving a B.J...... I guess just my take on things

hahhaa, these answers are so lame.

I bet a really funny black guy said it and it stuck.

Because that's what you really do. While some salads require delicate mixing and what have you, the common green salad is "tossed" with salad tongs after pouring the vinaigrette or dressing.


there is an x rated slang or meaning of "tossing a salad" but that would be inappropriate here..

I think a little tossing and jiggling is appropriate most anytime when in the kitchen. It's hard to do it properly without tossing around a bit.

Instead of mixing salad dressing all together, the better restaurants add each ingredient one by one and toss it each time.

Because your mixing DINGLEBERRIES!!
