Scotch eggs are lovely....except cold and store bought...and except the vegetarian ones! blech!  They use something other than *sausage* for the outter part and it smells just like dog food!  (at least the brand I tried).  ICK!

Here's one for you all to try:

Get a portion of chips from your local chippy, and a big tub of coleslaw from Sainsbury's. Scoop up the coleslaw with the chips. Yum!

Has anyone ever heard of Poutine? It's chips with gravy and grated cheese. Sounds gross but is actually really tasty. I chuck coleslaw on that too  ;D

Are you sure you are not my H?  He will eat coleslaw on anything.

I will have to tell him about coleslaw and chips.  I am sure he will love it. Thanks for the idea.

Someone may have already mentioned this (im too lazy to check), but when i first got here, my then boyfriend mixed a can of tuna (in oil) into a tub of cole slaw... it looked so disgusting, but when i tasted it, it was very nice!

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

Yeah it's funny what works isn't it? Although I suppose it's not that far removed from tuna mayonnaise.

I'm pretty sure  ;)

I always put coleslaw on my pizza as well. Get him to try that if he hasn't already!

There was a restaurant in Maryland called Red Hot and Blue...they called it Memphis style. They had a variety of different BBQ sandwiches. My fav was BBQ brisket with coleslaw! YUMMY!

Coleslaw has got to be one of the nastiest foods out there.  Bleeech.
Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its doors as early in the spring. Cultivate property like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old; return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts…

I don't like coleslaw either - I think it's the dressing.  I make a killer cabbage salad w/a spicy vinagrette type dressing that is really good. 
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

There are some that are better than others.... it's just you've usually got to taste all the shite ones to find the ones that are good!

so when is someone going to start a thread about food combos/products you THOUGHT you'd like and decided you didn't?

Alicia, I'd weetabix to mine. I spent 2 1/2 years poking at that stuff in Kenya and then 6 weeks straight with Brits and Aussies who ate it everyday... the smell make me nauseous, ew.
