Yes. It’s seasoned shredded cabbage. Virtually every European culture has been eating seasoned shredded cabbage since Roman times.
Absolutely horrible stuff, can’t stand it, but; each to their own and all that.
Ham, coleslaw and lettuce on a roll
Lasagna, chips and coleslaw
Baked potato with coleslaw on top
Pizza with coleslaw on top
These are a few of my favourite things
Partial to it in a sandwich or roll with tuna or ham. Like the look of your one there, not too much mayo. Did you ever have it with a mixture of mayo and wholegrain mustard?
Was it SuperValu that did a killer coleslaw. Dunno if they still have it.
I highly recommend this recipe. I brought a big bowl of it to a BBQ last summer and there was people turning down meat in favour of slaw.
Fuckin sick…. Put a NSFW on that ya mad cunt
Someone brought ‘naked coleslaw’ to work.
That would be coleslaw with no mayonnaise. I’m not sure I can continue working with this person now
Greatest side salad food of all time. I remember hearing the during the Celtic Tiger years it was hard to get coleslaw in restaurants as it was’nt trendy enough. Feckin cheek! I’d polish off a tub of it like ice cream 🙂
I love coleslaw but the problem is it’s very easy to fuck up. Bad coleslaw is either too sweet or the person who made it fucking drowned it in mayo.
Yes it is, however in Irelamd it tastes lush. I’m always amazed at how companies and countries can fuck it up though.
Take KFC they manage to make it taste bitter as F.
As long as you don’t just call it slaw I’m good. Love the stuff.
Pretty sure it’s common nearly everywhere in Europe however it is absolutely not the same as what we have at home
Caribbean here and yup
Some of the suggestions in here are great. Never would have thought of um, which makes me think, what else have people not thought of 🤔
Im gonna start lashing coleslaw on everything. I may report back… I also may not!
Wish me luck!
It’s missing purple cabbage
Lurker from Germany here. There is no restaurant salad here without it. And why not? Its cheap, tasty and healthy. I love it!
Very popular here in the U.S. Especially in the midwest.
Gawwd I love it, I’d eat it out of a dirty sock!
Here in the American south coleslaw is often eaten as a side dish with barbecue.
You can make lovely cabbage based sides which would be awesome but the trad coleslaw is not it. The way it’s done in Ireland it just kills it and the reasons are three: 1) all the fecking mayo, 2) no seasoning and flavouring, and 3) all the fecking mayo.
Edit: living outside of Ireland in the past, I managed to drop a lot of weight by eating the good equivalent of coleslaw – it can be awesome: filling and tasty but coleslaw should not mean just slaw with a blob on mayo on top. THAT is not a good coleslaw.

The Italians sometimes call it ‘Irish salad’: https://ricette.giallozafferano.it/Insalata-di-cavolo-e-carote-coleslaw.html
