My Mom & Aunt went to a St Patrick's parade last weekend and caught a ton of veggies (I am sure this is just a New Orleans thing). We went up with more carrots, onions and potatoes then 3 people could ever eat as well as one cabbage (they actually caught 20). We do not eat cabbage cooked at all, so I made cole slaw to go with our burgers. I know the first thing my hubby is going to say is that the cabbage is thinly sliced, not all chopped up like it would be if you had it from a restaurant. Personally, I live the sliced look because it looks home made.

Do you like your foo d to look like it came out of a pack even if it is home made?

oh I much prefer it to look homemade...

and as far as coleslaw I, like you, prefer it julienne sliced above the chopped up teensy bits that some restaurants serve. I like the texture so much better when sliced. I also like a tad bit of horseradish in my coleslaw dressing.

Horseradish? I have never heard of adding that. Horseradish, unless it is wasabi, is not my cup of tea. I really think I had something traumatic happen to me with it, just the word makes me gag.

Food,is the only one which give us strength and it has to be cooked in a very healthy way.Since it gives good strength for our body.
Only house food is good and I prefer to have it .
of course we have times when we are compelled to miss our food in journeys and at other times.
i take a packed food only that time,and prefer to visit only good hotels.

I definatley like my food to look homemade....homemade by me....ecspecially. Everyone has their own way of cooking and baking....thats what makes peoples' food so unique. My mother and my grandma make their spighetti the same exact way! But for some reason I LOVE my grandmas spighetti! LOL
