Answer 1

Could the orange have been from a mixture of mayo and wine vinegar?  Did it have bacon?

This is one I've tried that everyone loves:

BROCCOLI-BACON-CHEESE SALAD  

2 large bunches raw broccoli, cut into flowerets

1 lb. bacon, cooked and crumbled

2 c. grated Cheddar cheese

1/2 sweet onion, finely chopped

1/2 c. sugar

2 tbsp. wine vinegar

1 c. mayonnaise

Mix mayonnaise, sugar and vinegar together. Add onion, bacon and cheese. Stir until broccoli is lightly coated. Chill a few hours.

Maybe WalMart just added past - if you add pasta I would double the dressing ingredients.

Answer 2

You can buy bags of broccoli salad, near the bags of coleslaw, in the produce department.   Just do a coleslaw mayonnaise dressing, with a touch of vinegar, and some orange juice and sugar.  Add some shredded cheese and fresh orange zest and toss.....
