Wrong!!! In many places throughout the Carolinas, and even into Georgia
and Alabama, they will put slaw on your barbeque sandwich. If you say "Do
not put slaw on my sandwich", they will sometimes look at you as if you
had said "May I take your teenage daughter back to my hotel for illicit
activities"? I cannot fathom why this tradition of slaw on pork began,
but it is truly a Foul Thing.
