      Also who TF sits down to a big bowl of coleslaw? Its a side dish. You pair it with shit.

      Julienne apple slaw and spicy pulled pork.

      Candied pinapple slaw and jerk chicken.

      Elevate your cullinary game folks.

    The flavor of coleslaw varies as much as any other dish.
    Fresh veggies and a tasty dressing? Awesome.
    Shelf stable, premixed, and squeezed out of a bag at a fast food chain? Complete garbage.

      Dude, you gotta come south! Even the bad slaw here is edible, unless it’s made by damn yankees that moved here.

      Like, maybe you wouldn’t like it, but slaw varies so much by recipe and by ingredients quality that it never surprises me that someone hates it until they try a different version, but still hates the original version they thought of as slaw.

      Like, even KFC slaw, which is mid tier at best, I can just skip the damn chicken and have that. And that ain’t good slaw.

      Like, damn. You get some nice, peppery cabbage, shred it fine and do more than add mayo, and you’ll be at edible for sure. Maybe not something you get seconds of, but it’s okay enough.

      I fucking love some fucking slaw. Cole slaw is pretty much my favorite slaw, but there’s vinegar slaws too, and even yogurt slaws. And damn, you get some bbq slaw, all vinegary and with plenty of red pepper in it, there isn’t anything better on pit smoked bbq. Like, damn! Whether it’s on the bun with it, or as a side with a bbq plate, it cuts through the fats as a palate cleanser, and still manages to be worth eating on its own.

      And some yogurt slaw? Fuck me running! It’s more like a fruit salad with a lot of cabbage added tbh, but it works. Carrots, raisins, and finely sliced apples, some salt and pepper. You’ll slap yo mama.

      Oh! And you get some fucking prime-ass cole slaw, you grab a biscuit, you slap some fried chicken on that motherfucker and top it with slaw. Gods damn, boys, that’s the fucking lunch if champions right there!

      I am fucking enthusiast about slaw.

      Not true! But that’s not proper slaw.

    As a southern cook, where and when would you like me to pit smoke you and serve you on a bun with a nice aise of slaw?

    I didn’t like coleslaw until I ate it as a condiment. Alone it’s not my thing at all. In a sandwich? On top of pulled pork? Awesome stuff.

      You’ve had the creamy kind right? Bc I’ve had some “coleslaw” that wasn’t and that just ain’t right.

      I can agree with this, but when they try to pass it as a salad? Not a chance.
