Eh, when you say a salad in Europe, there's a 90-95% chance that its only dressing is olive oil (and not much of it, just for the texture) and not heavy stuff like ranch or french dressing.

A teaspoon of olive oil is 120 kcal. 3-4 teaspoons is the calorie content of a meal. That's the equivalent of a liter of soda.

A teaspoon is 5ml. At 0.92g/ml and 9kcal/g that would mean about 40kcal per teaspoon.

I think you mean table spoon, which is often enough dressing for one person, in my experience.

Sure, but the rest of the stuff (in what I consider salad base - tomatoes, cucumbers, maybe peppers?) is really small so it doesn't matter. A greek salad has cheese, yeah, that's a high calorie input but you don't eat much of it
