A lot of the fast food places, their ingredients come pre-mixed. ONe 
thing I do know, they do not regular shortenings but their own KFC 
shortenings. They do not use regular flours but their own KFC corporate 
supplied flours, mashed potato powder etc etc. So, I suspect even the 
mayonnaise they use to make their cole slaw comes in a KFC special can 
supplied by their corporate office.

Good coleslaw is not really hard.  Basically it consists of shredded
cabbage (plus some shredded carrot, if you want color) vinegar (I prefer
apple cider vinegar) a little sugar (to your taste) or Equlal (which works
equally well as sugar, for the calorie over-advantaged) and Miracle Whip
(!).  Mayo makes a flat taste - MW adds that little punch.  I suppose the
calorie over-advantaged could use Lite MW if necessary, but it won't taste
as good. 

Don't use too much of the above: just dnough to moisten the veggies.  You 
don't want to have excess liquid in the bottom of the bowl.

After that you can get creative.  A spoonfull of yellow mustard and/or
horseradish is nice - other condiments if you want to get eciting. 

That's it!

Cheers,
Phil

Let me see if I can get the recipe card from her and I will post it

Here's the recipe my wife found in a newspaper which claimed this was
the authentic KFC stuff.

Serves 6-8 people

8 Cups Cabbage (chopped small)
1/4 Cup grated carrot
1/3 Cup Sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
1/4 Cup milk
1/2 Cup mayonnaise
1/4 Cup buttermilk
1 1/2 Tblsp. white vinegar
2 1/2 Tblsp. lemon juice

Mix sugar, salt, black pepper, milk, mayo, buttermilk, vinegar and
lemon juice. To this add cabbage and carrot. Allow to stand in bowl
for at least 2 hrs. (refrigerated). The longer the better but not more
than two days.

I go the simple route, but it fits your description:

3 parts Mayo, 1 part vinegar, 1 part honey, and season to taste.

Use good vinegar, and whatever mayo you like.  The seasoning I like
best is a dash of Cardamom.  Tried lots of spices, but none I like better.
The honey keeps it thick, which really makes a big difference.

To be true to the thread, KFCs is bland, sweeter, very watery, and has
a little carrot in it.

It's been a while since I've had it, but I think the KFC cole slaw has
celery seed in it.  I can't stand celery, but I like the taste of celery
seed, so I usually notice it.  It gives food a little bit of a bite.  I
also like it in tuna salad.

Fanny Farmer's cole slaw recipe is wonderful.  Making that boiled
dressing will take 40 minutes, but look out!  It's worth it.

Hey...It's been a little while since I've had KFC cole slaw, but since I've 
started eating it a bit more the other week, I think they changed the recipe.  
Does anyone notice a taste difference within the past year on the flavor of 
KFC-slaw???
