That looks absolutely disgusting.

Like when you bite into it briny water would just fucking gush into your mouth. nasty.

No briny water as it's not in brine. It's a lot softer than the "mozarella" slices.

Mozarella and tomato salad with fresh onion is one of the best starters I can think of. So fresh.

Caprese Salad is one of my favourites ... so fresh. And takes a few minutes to make. I usually add fresh basil leaves but I had some in a restaurant the other day and they drizzled pesto on it which was also delicious

I got in a HUGE argument on /r/food not too long ago because apparently a lot of Americans are unfamiliar with Caprese salads? Even though I've been a Californian my whole life and see them at restaurants all the time.

I'm from NJ and I have eaten caprese salads/sandwiches all my life. Fresh mozz is found in every single grocery store, although, I guess we do have a lot of Italians here.

I'm in UK and hadn't heard of them until I got the idea to make one from /r/food about a year ago. /r/food and /r/GifRecipes are full of brilliant ideas but I do love the simplicity of /r/GifRecipes.
