zucchini
All of the years that I've been eating zucchini, I don't think I've ever had it raw. Well, I picked the first one from the garden today and I also picked a bunch of leaf lettuce. So, I was thinking I could just dice up some of the squash and make a big salad for dinner. Right? It's not too bitter raw, is it?

zucchini tastes better cooked (to me) but I have heard of it being grated and used in green salads - you can "sweeten" up your salad with a sweet-type salad dressing
it can't be any more bitter than frizzelle! A citrus-based dressing or a dressing with a bit of sugar would be good on it.

Maybe if you peel it, it won't be bitter. I've noticed many veggie skins are the bitter part (I always peel cucumbers, for example).

IT'S EVERYWHERE!!
My fridge is full of squash and it's time to start freezing some. Do I need to do anything to it before I cut it up and freeze it? Also, would slices be okay to freeze or should I just do cube/chunks?
