Hi Dave,


 RH> As far as sweet cole slaw--my MIL gave me the cole slaw recipe I make
 RH> 99% of the time; it has just a sprinkle (maybe a tablespoon, at most,)
 RH> of sugar. Otherwise, it's cabbage, shredded carrot, pineapple, little
 RH> bits each of s&P, pineapple juice and mayo. I'll usually use crushed
 RH> pineapple or cut up rings/tidbits into small pieces. Best cole slaw
 RH> I've ever tasted and the one we judge others by.

 DD> That doesn't need sugar - the sweet comes from the carrots and fruit.

 RH> That's why I add just a bit--to help bring out the sweetness of the
 RH> other ingredients.

 DD> You're making it. You're the one you have to suit.

And Steve; he grew up with this cole slaw. My mom might occaisionally
mix some cabbage and mayo, then call it cole slaw but it definatly
lacked a lot. This cole slaw is one of a number of recipies from my MIL
that became a fast "regular" for me.


 DD> I do like Popeyes (and KFC) coleslaw. With a few grinds of black
 DD> pepper.

 RH> I like Popeyes slaw better than KFC'c.

 DD> I definitely like Popeyes chicken better. I don't find a lot to pick
 DD> between their cole slaws (locally).

I like Popeyes chicken better too. Been so long since I've had KFC slaw,
I remember it as one of those fine chopped, oil & vinegar salads.
Popeyes has some body to it, and a mayo based dressing.

 DD>  Categories: Greens, Vegetables, Sauces
 DD>       Yield: 8 servings

 DD>       1 c  Mayonnaise
 DD>     1/4 c  Cugar
 RH>                 *****

 RH> * Better correct this typo in your MM

 DD> Good catch. Another reason not to edit my own copy.

I've done enough proof reading for others over the years that typos jump
out at me.


 RH> ... Two wrongs don't make a right but, two Wrights made an aeroplane

 DD> And three rights will make a left (turn).  Bv)=

Another right is that of free speech.
