The phrase "the salad days" is from Shakespeare's play 'Anthony and Cleopatra', in 1606 AD. The phrase means the days of youthful inexperience. In the play, Cleopatra says “My salad days, When I was green in judgment”. Green is meaning naive in this sentence and salad didn't just refer to your lettuce and ranch dressing. Salad pretty much meant any vegetable. The phrase also means the peak or heyday of a time. This is a new meaning for the phrase. This second meaning is from the US and it has developed in the past twenty or so years. Hope this helped :)
