Coleslaw is fucking awesome you godless piece of shit.

[–] SeeMinusMinus@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Everyone here seems to either really like coleslaw or completely hate it. I am on team coleslaw yum: the only correct option.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Fuck coleslaw.

Raw cabbage or nothing. Hget your mayo off my cabbage.

[–] JoYo@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

you can make coleslaw with salt and vinegar. if youre not salting your veggies then you might be a rabbit.

[–] RangerJosie@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Shredded cabbage is objectively the way. Lettuce is just crunchy water.

That's an oddly specific video, and I enjoyed every second of it. XD

I can tell a lot about you from that statement.

You like pineapple on pizza.

You once played seven minutes in heaven...with your cousin

You know two facts about ducks, and they are both wrong.

[–] incompetentboob@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are you a wizard? How did you know? It’s like you peered into my soul.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, but that's not a wand in my pocket.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I hope it's not a dick. Why all these people that keep a dick in their pocket?

[–] SexyTimeSasquatch@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Make better coleslaw maybe?

[–] Supervisor194@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Spicy cole slaw topping a sandwich made of slow-smoked pulled pork is absolute nirvana.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Oh shit, how have I not tried that? And I have plenty of slow-smoked pulled pork left over from this weekend!

I only had pickles on pulled pork sandwiches, pulled pork breakfast burritos, pulled pork mac&cheese ….

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

My colleague's ex made the best coleslaw. It was actually edible, and was delicious.

[–] dewritoninja@pawb.social 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I will die defending coleslaw you heathens

[–] Darkenfolk@dormi.zone 3 points 2 years ago

"Do not suffer the coleslaw enjoyer to live", ~some holy book

[–] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

The overly sweet crap at most restaurants can go straight in the trash.

[–] Dettweiler42@lemmyonline.com 3 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] EffortlessEffluvium@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

47 years ago, my 4th grade (US) teacher made me eat the school cafeteria’s cole slaw, never mind that I told her I really don’t like cole slaw. Threw it right up! My mother was pretty mad at my teacher for that…

[–] ipha@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oi, fuck you and the horse you rode in on.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hey everybody, look at this horse fucker

[–] Blackout@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He probably does it while eating slaw

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Like a boss

Tell me you're basic without telling me you're basic

My pH is ~7.4

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

coleslaw is good you just have no culture, sweetie 😘

[–] BakedGoods@sh.itjust.works -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If your culture is mixing mayonnaise into everything I want no part in it.

[–] Catweazle@social.vivaldi.net 1 points 2 years ago

@BakedGoods @RickyRigatoni

A couple in an elegant restaurant in Texas. The waiter appears, dressed in a tailcoat with a bottle wrapped in a napkin: "Chateo de Sauce, 1985" and pours a little into the customer's glass, the customer tastes it and nods. The Waiter leaves and the other couple says "Wow, you were right, really a high-class restaurant."
"I already said it, and this was just the ketchup."

[–] cabbagee@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net -1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] RangerJosie@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

You just havent had good slaw before. Eastern NC Vinegar based slaw is the way.

When it comes to that sweet shit tho I'm right there with you. Trash it.

[–] essteeyou@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

This is the wrongest thing I've ever read in my damn life!

[–] maquise@ttrpg.network 1 points 2 years ago

You eat what you like, I’ll eat what I like.

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Coleslaw is food you give to someone you hate. Mayo and cabbage? What did I knock up your sister or something? Please give me something with even one goddamn spice in it.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

See, there's the problem.

Slaw ain't mayo and cabbage. It's more of a cabbage salad, the way you make chicken salad, or whatever.

It's all about the extras, the mayo is just the carrier, and the slaw is your base.

You have to bring pepper to the mix, or you're wasting your time. A bit of apple cider vinegar too. From there, it's about fine tuning.

The carrots are optional, obviously. And I've seen raisins added when there's carrots, and it's here than it sounds.

But. Spice wise, you should bring a touch of paprika to the mix, a little pinch of cumin maybe, and some ground red pepper to give that kick underneath those.

Gotta be friendly with your salt cellar, but not too crazy.

And, believe it or not, the tiniest hint of sugar. I'm talking a literal pinch of the stuff per head of cabbage. Maybe two if you're feeling weird. It enhances the spices, makes the vinegar more subtle, and amplifies the salt so you don't have to use as much salt. Kinda like how a tiny bit of salt in sweet things can let you use less sugar and still get the flavor right.

Keep your cabbage spread small, smaller than you think it should be. The smallest size in most graters is where you want to be.

Now, instead of this bland mess, you've got something that pops and brings its own taste to the party.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Do you have a recipe? While I’m a fan of great slaw, I’ve never been able to make it myself. The recipes I’ve tried are bland mayo mush not worth eating

[–] dgendreau@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I once ordered a Reuben at a deli and they made with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut. I said that is not a Reuben and I'm not paying for it.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

It’s not a Rueben but it does make an excellent sandwich!
