Answers included banana, peanut butter, peppermint and popcorn.<br/><br/>Aside from the occasional topping oddity, most people gravitate towards the classics for their salads. The best toppings were found to be cheese (42%), tomatoes (37%), bacon (30%), croutons (28%) and cucumbers (27%).<br/><br/>To add, the best salad dressings are ranch (50%), Italian (30%) and Caesar (25%).")

Historically, assets that are disposed of during an individual’s lifetime are subject to capital gains taxes on the increase in value of that asset over time. The amount of capital gains owed is determined largely by the difference between the value at the time of purchase and the value at the time of transfer.")
