So I would say yes it’s a vegetable.

Obviously the more sugar and mayo, the less one might think it to be as healthy, but it can be.

Cabbage and dressing.

These are all super vegetables.

Hold on, I'm on my way over to your place for coleslaw!

...you slather that mayonnaise sh*t on it......then it's garbage......

My 2cts. You're welcome.

For the coleslaw base:

1 medium head green cabbage (about 2 lbs), cored and thinly shredded
2 medium carrots, peeled and grated
1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1 small green bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional)

3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup vegetable oil or light olive oil
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder

Steps
Shred the cabbage as thinly as possible using a sharp knife or mandoline slicer — thin shreds absorb the dressing better.
Place the shredded cabbage in a large bowl.
Add the grated carrots, sliced red onion, and bell pepper if using.
Toss the vegetables together to combine.
In a small saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, oil, sugar, salt, celery seed, black pepper, and mustard powder.
Heat the dressing over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar completely dissolves — about 2-3 minutes.
Do not let the dressing boil.
Pour the warm dressing over the cabbage mixture immediately.
Toss everything together thoroughly until all the vegetables are coated.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
Toss again before serving and drain off excess liquid if desired for a less wet slaw.

or there is freezer slaw:

Smattering of carrot, mostly white cabbage with Mayo. Seems redundant with potato salad.

We always had both when we had a BBQ party (when I was still living with my parents), and we put slaw on our sandwiches. We had a literal BBQ shack in town, ( I firmly believe that if you sneezed real hard it would fall down) a pig was roasted on hot rocks (which had been fired for two days) under a heavy tarp. It was basted with this amazing vinegary hot thin barbecue sauce and we always had it for July 4th. You could smell it all over town, too. I would sell my soul for a bottle of that sauce!!!!! I have never found a sauce quite like it, although Red Hot and Blue had one that came close.

The owner/cook had been cooking pigs from when my dad was a kid, and her father before her. Legend has it that her grandfather or maybe great grandfather was the pit master at a plantation in North Carolina. She never shared the recipe for that sauce either, despite my uncle begging her for it. Whenever he came to visit, he brought several 2 liter soda bottles and filled them up with that sauce.

Now I really want to go to Kentucky!!

Are definitely vegetables

Cole slaw is a salad

😁

of course if my mother made it she would shred cucumbers in it.
It was wonderful

Sometimes I put radishes in it

He could have come home with fried okra.

So, technically, French fries count.

Anyway, your husband is a man and you know how we are. You perhaps should have been more specific.

what's wrong with coleslaw

Every time I try that stuff, it reaches up, growls, grabs my throat, attacks the spaces between my teeth, etc. It is a vicious, aggressive member of the animal kingdom that cleverly disguises itself as a passive vegetable until it stages its vicious attack, and then it’s too late.
