Nice salad. We liked the pineapple in it. It added extra flavor. Thanks for posting.

This is a classic! Excellent recipe on it's own, but I added a 1/4 tsp cinnamon and it was amazing! Thanks!

I can't claim to have ever been a big fan of this type of salad. I made it because I had raisins and carrots on hand and thought my kids might enjoy this. Lo and behold for me, I also happened to have an 8 oz can of pineapple tidbits in the pantry. So I made this. Initially, they did not like the looks of the salad and they "weren't going to eat that"! Ha, ha. The joke was on them as they ate ALL their serving and loved it. The pineapple was the trick, I think. That's what worked for me, at any rate! I'll definitely make this again.
