can you actually shake/mix salad on this container?

If you really wanted to. Just leave out the compartment portion and put it all together. Shake it up!

Yes. It is leak proof. Make sure all four tabs are locked in place. That is how i mixed the salad. This is the best salad container for commuters that i found.

Yes, if you remove the tray. Just dump everything from the tray and dressing onto the lettuce. Once you remove the tray there is room to shake/mix. I actually just had a salad for lunch in this container a couple hours ago. It works well for me, and I always shake my salads.

Absolutely! I use it to mix and carry my protein shakes. only thing is if you like a larger smoothie this container is only 12 oz. The lid is very secure, it has a rubber o-ring in it to prevent leaks. I love mine

I don't have any trouble mixing it and I'm not all that strong. Its on wheels. When it gets full you have to use a little effort but my 7 yr old can do it.

I have never had a problem with "mixing" it, although I've only done it in a blender with fruits, and not just shaken it up manually. The taste is fine. Sorry but I did not read any of the reviews you refer to. Vanilla is an option if you're concerned about liking the unflavored one.

It is not leak- proof. I think salad dressing would leak. I would put in a separate container.

sure I do not see why you can't do that as it is a strong tasting drink and I would like to know how it turns out in a salad dressing

If you shook it side-to-side it might be okay. If you shake it up and down it might leak because there's a little notch where the neck of the spout meets the collar of the bottle. This notch allows any dribbles to drip back into the body of the container. That said, it's pretty big so I imagine if you made dressing it wouldn't fill more than halfway. Then you could shake side-to-side without the dressing reaching that notch.

No. I gave this as a gift. The recipient uses the bottom for dry things. Sometimes for salads with veggies in bottom & fruit in top. Dressing separate.

Use a magic bullet or hand shaker. It's easy to mix. Very smooth not clumpy

I use a blender bottle to mix this. Give it a vigorous shake for 30 seconds or so and it's believed thoroughly

It would seem to me that there would be too little space to properly "fluff" salad fixin's unless you had a very deft touch on the pulse switch. I use my KitchenAid 3.5 cup food chopper almost daily and love it for a 'zillion' sundry uses. However, I use a hand chopper to prepare my salads. Just pound on the top and a spring-loaded multi-bladed knife quickly and perfectly every time, no matter the skill level of the operator. You really ought to have the 3.5 cup KitchenAid, but not for chopping salad... In my opinion.

Mix it in a blender! Always it will turn just about anything into a shake, or tastes like a shake!

I've never tried this, so I did a "shake test" for you. Using the 1/2 gallon pitcher (I think the 1 gallon would be rather heavy to shake) I filled it 1/2 way with water, put the lid back on, and made sure the pour cap was securely in the closed position. First I shook it vigorously in an upright position. No problem - the lid stayed tight and the cap didn't open. Next I turned it upside down without shaking - there was a very slight drip from around the cap. Then I shook it as if I were mixing the contents while it was upside down, and there were only a few drips from around the cap. Forgot to test while shaking side to side. My recommendation would be to put a folded paper towel or cloth over the lid/cap while shaking and put one hand there. I don't think the lid will come off or the cap fly open, but better to be safe than sorry. I should note that my pitchers were purchased several years ago; I can't speak for the quality of ones sold today. Like it or not, sometimes quality changes.

No it can't. I love my salad shooter...it wouldn't like to be without one. I use it several times a week. :O)

I've never tried to do that, and I can't imagine from the texture perspective that I would try. For an eggy flavor in salad I'd use kala namak salt or make up some tofu "egg" salad with vegg or kala namak.

Yes, perfect for sandwiches and kid-sized salads, NOT GOOD for adult-sized salads...

I am not sure why you would want to do that but of course you could. It has everything in it except the liquids needed. Oil, milk and eggs. I add flax seeds and cinnamon to mine and sometimes bluberries.
