Move over Subway, Chop It Salad Co. Has Arrived!

So I'm at Southpark Mall the other day, watching Breaking Dawn for the second time in two days (don't judge me) and I stumble across a new place in the food court, Chop It Salad Co. 

Not being a big fan of salads, I approached skeptically.

To my surprise & delight, Chop It makes to order salads AND wraps using a large array of fresh ingredients, much like Subway, but on steroids (50+ toppings, 30+ dressings).  Like Subway, your creation is made before your eyes, but unlike Subway, they don't skimp on the ingredients!  Chop It's salads range from 3-4 pounds and you are not charged by weight and the wraps were almost as impressive as a Chipotle burrito, almost (who needs something that big anyway?!?)

As you can imagine, with over 50 toppings, there are some pretty unique offerings: sun-dried tomatoes, avocado chunks, tofu, candied walnuts, dried cranberries, hummus, artichoke hearts and much, much more.  For you vegetarians you can choose from feta, goat cheese or plain old cheddar, among others.  And for all you carnivores, they've got the typical meats as well - making this a friendly destination for one and all!

Staying on the healthy train, Chop It offers smoothies, soups, veggie dippers, fruit cups and an array of not so healthy sides as well...chips, brownies, muffins, etc.

Don't want to create your own?  No worries, there are 12 signature salads/wraps to choose from: Asian Chicken, Cobb Salad, Spinach Walnut Raspberry...

And get this!  Chop It Salad Co. is owned and operated in Cleveland, Ohio!  I would have totally thought this was a California-based company that took a wrong turn and decided to take a chance here of all places.  Chop It is also committed to purchasing from local suppliers - double bonus!
