For a smoky flavor, use smoked bacon. Adjust the amount of sugar and vinegar to your preference. Taste the dressing and add more sugar for a sweeter salad, or more vinegar for a tangier one. To prevent the salad from becoming soggy, add the bacon just before serving. For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon or use plant-based bacon bits. This salad is best served cold. You can prepare it a day in advance, but add the bacon just before serving to maintain its crispiness.
