A couple years ago I would occasionally order Starbucks Chicken Curry Salad with Couscous when I hadn’t had lunch and needed a quick bite to eat. I was sad when they discontinued making and selling this salad because it was one of my favorites. Although I miss the salad, I don’t miss paying $5.50 for it!
