There are lots of different salad dressings -- French, western, Italian, etc. What KIND of salad dressing?

Hi Dale,

The recipe means to call for Miracle Whip Salad Dressing/Mayonnaise.

This was very good, better than most recipes I have tried, but after making exactly like described, I add a few extra ingredients, like Instead of Miracle Whip or salad dressing I used Helmans, and I used a little more than 1/2 c. sugar, and I added about 2 tablespoons of cidar vinegar, I grated some sweet vidalia onion and used the juice from the onion, only about 1/4 teaspoons, I added one Tablespoon of Land O Lakes whipping cream (heavy) and celery seed salt, about 4-5 shakes we could not stop eating this coleslaw it was delicious

Basic recipe above, but with the following changes.
Hellmans instead of Miracle Whip
No sandwich spread.
No sugar.
Extra dill pickle brine from Vlasic.
2 T. of Half and Half
Grated Vidalia like Karen from Ohio
Full Teaspoon of 7 Seasoning from Morton instead of salt and pepper. Delectable!

What kind of salad dressing, what kind of sandwich spread, and what is dill pickle vinegar?

"Salad dressing" refers here to Miracle Whip (fake mayo, basically). "Sandwich spread" is found with the mayo in the store; it's like mayo with pickle relish and seasoning mixed in. "Dill pickle vinegar" is simply some of the liquid from a jar of dill pickles. Also, search engines are a thing. Maybe consider using one when you have questions like this.
