Which of the following is an ingredient in the House Salad?

• A. Shredded Cheddar
• B. Bacon Bits
• C. Croutons
• D. Olives

Answer: (A)

Understanding what ingredients are typically included in a House Salad helps you recognize which toppings are commonly part of the standard recipe. Shredded cheddar is a common cheese topping that many versions of a House Salad include to add flavor and a bit of creaminess without overpowering the greens. The other options—bacon bits, croutons, olives—are not universally standard: bacon bits are more often found in heartier builds like a Chef or Cobb; croutons are common but not guaranteed in every House Salad; olives are more typical of Greek or Mediterranean-style salads. So, in the standard House Salad context, shredded cheddar fits as the ingredient listed, making it the best choice.
