should raw cabbage and raw carrot be included in a salad

[roadrash]

Right , a bit of background, im busy decorating when mrs roadrash says …"new potatoes and fish cakes for tea , do you want mixed salad"
" yes , that would be nice" I said , thinking.... hmm..... lettuce , tomato, onion, spring onion, etc
hhmmmpphh I should be so lucky, what I actually got was a bit of shredded lettuce and …….now heres where it all goes wrong....bloody raw cabbage and raw fekin carrot, ..now I am no culinary wizard but even I know cabbage and carrot are vegetables and should be bloody cooked, they have no place in a salad.....

apparently im having egg on toast tommorrow

Cabbage no
Carrot yes

 

[winjim]

Yes, with a bit of onion(not too much), plenty of mayo, black pepper and brown sugar.

Coleslaw. It's coleslaw.

 

[Beebo]

Cabbage onion and lettuce on my kebab.

 

[roadrash]

coleslaw is the devils work

 

[PaulSB]

We often eat fish, new potatoes and coleslaw. What's the big deal, it's much crunchier than salad.............................why would you want lettuce, tomato etc. with fish??

 

[roadrash]

I need your votes....tomorrows tea depends on it...

 

[welsh dragon]

Cabbage should be thrown straight in the bin. Sorted.

 

[screenman]

Bit of Jamie Oliver going on there, what you had was coleslaw without the salad cream.

 

[winjim]

coleslaw is the devils work

The horrid acidic stuff you get in tubs is. Homemade is great.

[slowmotion]

No, neither. Pubs seem to love bulking up their salads with vast quantities of grated cabbage. It's barbaric.

 

[screenman]

I like fruit in a salad.
