Here's what I make for my husband:
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
salt and pepper to taste (quite a lot of salt, really)
Toss with 1 pound shredded cabbage and whatever other vegetables
(e.g., onion) you like.

this is what i usually make. it's not sweet, and frankly tastes better
than your k.f.c. recipe sounded:
cole slaw (adapted from 'the everyday cookbook' by betty wason)
2 cups (not too finely) shredded cabbage, or a little more
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dry mustard
1/2 tbl sugar
1 to 1 1/2 tbl rice vinegar (or other mild vinegar)
1 1/2 tbls sour cream }
} or 2 tbl mayonnaise
1 tbl mayonnaise }
* * * * * * * *
mix together mustard, sugar and vinegar.
to shredded cabbage in bowl, add 1/2 the salt and toss. add the other
half, toss.
add vinegar mixture, toss.
add mayonnaise or sour cream/mayonnaise and toss. refrigerate.
4-6 side servings (it says here). it keeps pretty well for a few days.

=============================================
I have made gallons of this for buffets, picnics, parties, BBQs etc.
Vinegar Coleslaw
1 head of cabbage
2 carrots
1/2 cup bell pepper (red, green, whatever)
1 onion
Dressing:
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups cider (or rice) vinegar
1 TB salt
1 TB mustard seed
1 TB celery seed
Chop, shred or grate vegetables very fine (as you like them).
Bring dressing ingredients to a boil,
Remove from heat.
Pour hot dressing over vegetables.
Let cool to room temperature and refrigerate.
This much dressing will do twice the veggies if you wish. It stores
very well in big ziplock bags and keeps for weeks in your fridge, It
also travels well and stands up safely on a buffet table, You an
reheat the leftover dressing and pour it over "new" vegetables. Also
good on burgers, hotdogs & sandwiches.

Anything without onions, onions in cole slaw, potato salad, macaroni
salad is disgusting taste in ass... any TIAers want onions they can
add them to their own at time of consumption... and I do mean
Consumption:
1 a: a progressive wasting away of the body
And then eat with the lepers.
Shredded cabbage & carrots, and raisins (unshredded LOL)with a
dressing made out of mayo, a little ketchup, and a little sugar.

You get to choose so we can argue about it.
Why? Everyone will and then bitch that the recipe didn't turn out
right!
I have made this recipe for years and over the years I have found the WHITE
WINE VINEGAR is crucial to the recipe. The flavor is very specific an to be
frank I keep WWV around specifically for that recipe.

Shredded cabbage, carrots, onion, maybe radishes and cucumbers if I have
good ones available. Mom's oil-and-vinegar-base dressing.
