Coleslaw is a mainstay of American cuisine. Many times people ask me what constitutes American food. Is it just burgers and fries, the stuff you get at McDonald’s? Considering the vast United States with their own diversity as regards regions and people, it is hard to answer that question. We have the down home Southern…
