Pasta salad is trashy.

Pasta salad is not trashy at all. Just say no thank you.

I know it is healthy to eat.

I am like you OP. I can't stand quinoa, rice and pasta. I don't know why but can't swallow any of these grains.

But I don't think any of these grains are vulgar.

I think the word you're looking for is "vile." I don't mind quinoa though. It's like rice or pasta or barley--not much of a flavor, it's just what you serve with it.

I tried it for the first time last night and thought it tasted gross. Almost so earthy it could pass for dirt.

OP is obviously just trying to gain some of the notoriety of the vulgar pasta salad bitch.

It may be all of those things, but it isn't vulgar. "Vulgar" doesn't usually refer to food and if it did, it wouldn't refer to food as plain as quinoa.

"Vulgar" means tasteless, crass, tawdry, ostentatious, flamboyant, overdone, showy, gaudy, or garish.
