[quote=Anonymous]Growing up we did always have coleslaw at Thanksgiving, even though I would say it seems more summer/BBQ type of dish generally. Nothing else on the table was particularly out of the ordinary, but always coleslaw (and a relish tray as well). We are not even remotely southern either so I can’t explain it other than - family tradition somehow!? So I think this is a fair question OP but also sometimes you just have to accept tradition for tradition’s sake. For those railing about fatty or American foods - Thanksgiving is very much an American holiday. Holidays in general feature richer and more plentiful foods than an everyday meal in every culture. Anecdotally despite the disgusting, fatty, American coleslaw on our table for a once a year holiday, none of us are obese. We tend to think the rest of the year counts a lot more than holidays.
