I agree with the earlier review in that this is not "worthy of a special occasion" but it's a really good side dish for an Asian meal (we had it with a chicken-veggie stir fry). I thought there was a little too much dressing for the slaw, so I added it to the cabbage vs. the other way around, and didn't use it all. I prefer a tangy slaw, so I didn't add any sweeter.
