Hello, Salad People š„¬
A very quick welcome to new subscribersāand a few reminders for all you 24-hour salad people.
ITāS GETTING SO CROWDED in hereāthanks to an extremely generous New York Times article by Kim Seversonāthat it feels like weāre probably going to have to knock out a wall in the salad lab just to make room for everyone.
So, this is a quick note to welcome new subscribersāweāre so happy to have youāand to give you some info on how to make the most of the Department of Saladāor DOS. (If youāre a longtime subscriber who is extremely hip to our rhythm, you may want to skip reading this.)
We send out two issues a week. Paid subscribers always get two a week. Everyone else gets 3-4 a month, depending. But there are plenty of salads (and, lately, a few salad-adjacent dishes), not to mention lots of free issues, in the archive for everyone. We appreciate all of you!
Speaking of the archive: if youāre ever in the mood to peruse the last year-and-a-half of bulletins, simply search āDepartment of Saladā on the Googler. There we are!
Would you like to search for something in the salad lab archive? When you arrive at the site, look right below the top post and youāll see the classic search icon. (That red arrow wonāt be there. Iām just being super-helpful.)
Of course, you can also find us by going to emilyrnunn.substack.com.
Our last issue went to everyone, meaning both free and paid subscribers. So tomorrowās issue will be for paid subscribers only.
In the meantime, here is a bulletin we sent out as a recap of our first year, which will give you a good idea of what you are in for. Another way to get started is to read our first issue. Things have changed a bit since then, but not much.
Thanks for being a subscriber. Weāll see you soon. āEmily and the boys in the lab

So glad we've got all this new company! Come on in, folks, you won't regret this! š Roll up for the excellent salads and more!
Aunt Mariah is the recurring special guest these new subscribers don't even know they've been waiting for. Sort of the Betty White of the DOS.
