Are you ready to rock? Here’s Food Network roadside king Guy Fieri being licked by flames and surrounded by a general skull-ring vibe, not to mention the party-hearty note on the back (‘ … a top notch side dish for your tailgate BBQ ….It’s off da hook!’). Star of the series Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, chef Guy ‘I don’t do turnovers’ Fieri is all about pit stop culture, so cole slaw dressing seems a logical step in the retail direction. What’s interesting about this item is that cole slaw is taken very seriously in the Southern States, mainly because it is a key ingredient in the classic shredded pork sandwich. Hence ‘Carolina’ cole slaw, which is drier, tangier, and more pork-friendly than the usual type. Shelf Life acquired a cabbage and some other essentials, put on a little Metallica, and set to work. For starters, we wouldn’t call this dressing ‘creamy’; to us it’s more like a vinaigrette. It tastes sharp and sweet, and the mustard is a monster. It’s an acceptable bottled dressing – not high end but certainly not death row Kwik-E-Mart. Buy this celebrity shortcut and you’ll save time (but not money).
