Salad is one of southern Vietnam's specialties, a straightforward dish that relates to the tastes and preferences of a broad range of individuals. Salads are considered rustic and rural when they include mostly fruits and vegetables grown in the home garden.

The abundance of fruits in the South has also resulted in a wide range of salads. Many fruits can be eaten raw or transformed into a variety of delicious meals when combined with the distinctive dressing. Salads made from mango, papaya, jackfruit, and pomelo are a few of the features.
