Advantages: Cheap and crunchy vegetables!
Disadvantages: Sloppy and rather flavourless
I love coleslaw so when I spotted this in my local Asda store costing 42p for 180g, 64p for 300g or £1.20 for a 600g tub of the stuff I decided to try it out...I mean what beats a cheese and coleslaw sandwich eh? Lol.
The Packaging:
The coleslaw comes in a see-through plastic round tub and around the front of it we are told that it is Asda 'Chosen By You' Creamy Coleslaw and the size is stated and we are told that it is suitable for Vegetarians and on the back of the tub we are given contact details for Asda. On the lid the best before date is clearly stamped on it, ingredients are listed, nutritional advice is given as well storage details. It's a nice enough and informative pot and pull off the lid and under that there is a protective film you need to remove which pulls off with complete ease.
The Coleslaw Itself:
Made up with lots of shredded white cabbage and some cubes of carrot and a few slithers of white onions, this comes in very thin, white and slightly sweetened mayonnaise. On the ingredient list we are told that this contains 1% of single cream but because of the sloppiness of this and the sweetness that cream, in flavour really does get very lost indeed.
The vegetables are crunchy and fresh enough but swimming in watered down mayonnaise and I found myself having to drain a lot of that watery juice away or I would have lost loads down my top!
This is a actually a rather boring coleslaw. I mean sure the vegetables are crunchy enough but I can't really taste any onion within it and like I said no cream at all and I just don't understand why an earth its called creamy when its so runny! Not one I would personally buy again this one I'm afraid as I didn't enjoy it one bit!
