It all began when Darlene Schrijver was compiling her favorite salad recipes for her daughter who was off to college when a friend asked, Why dont you film the directions for making recipes instead and post them on TikTok Shes always on there anyway.

She called her TikTok account The Salad Lab to encourage the spirit of experimentation. Soon, The Salad Labs following began to grow rapidly when Darlene would attempt to recreate a celebritys favorite salad or a recipe inspired by a dish from a restaurant.
