What you add can either KEEP it all good (like tossing with cider vinegar and a bit of sweetning (artificial to keep the dish very dietetic) or make it considerably less good by slathering it with a half bottle of MAYO and making it an all fat product... Worst is a mess made with some hydrogenated MAYO substitute- then it borders on dangerous! joquiero 06-30-2004, 01:06 PM I make my own mayo with tofu - so if you get a tofu mayo (theres one called vegenaise) it should be fine. And cabbage and carrots are fine. woodahs 06-30-2004, 02:49 PM Thanks for all the help! :) Magpiezoe 07-01-2004, 01:58 PM Hello, If you're only worried about transfats, then you might want to look up the old gramma recipes. They used to use light cream, apple cider vinegar, and a little sat and sugar. The tofu dressing sounds good though. How do you make it? joquiero 07-01-2004, 05:42 PM Hello, If you're only worried about transfats, then you might want to look up the old gramma recipes.
