Some people hate it, others love it. If you've ever tried coleslaw, you understand why it can be a controversial palate cleanser. Coleslaw typically includes shredded cabbage and carrots with some kind of mayo-based tangy dressing and added seasonings. It can have an interesting flavor and texture, which can be a good or bad thing depending on who you ask.

The restaurants and grocery stores that make coleslaw right, though, keep people coming back. Coleslaw lovers across the U.S. have made it clear that Walmart's Member's Mark Homestyle Coleslaw (also sold at Sam's Club) is a winner. Sam's Club customers give the coleslaw a 4.3 rating out of 5, with nearly 190 reviews. A 5-pound container also sells for just $6.68 — that's $1.34 per pound, a fantastic price for what, by most reviews, is a high-quality coleslaw.

A quick scan of reviews from Sam's Club customers explains some of the hype. Many customers praise the value and portion size that comes in one container, with some even saying it's too much coleslaw. Others loved the flavor, "Tastes like homemade without all the work." Another customer comments, "This is the best coleslaw I've ever had. I'm not a big [fan] of coleslaw in general but sometimes I just crave it and this hits the spot." Quite a few reviewers say the Member's Mark Homestyle Coleslaw is the best store-bought option available.

With what appears to be a really good coleslaw that comes with outstanding value, what does one do with 5 pounds of it? Outside of serving it as a basic side at a cookout, it's always a great topping on hot dogs, barbecue sandwiches, fish tacos, and some Southerners even love it on burgers; a tasty "slawburger," if you will.

Beyond the basics, you have plenty of other ways to use coleslaw, especially when you have a 5-pound container. It works nicely as the base to chicken salad, or place a few tablespoons inside a hot macaroni grilled cheese, Reuben, or plenty of other sandwiches to add a boost of flavor, texture, and nutrition. We've even seen some recipes that mix coleslaw, a touch of milk, flour, egg, and seasonings, then pan fry to create some crispy coleslaw fritters.

No matter how you use it — on its own, as a side, inside a sandwich, or in some other creative concoction — the Member's Mark Homestyle Coleslaw checks all the boxes that make customers keep coming back. It's delicious, versatile, and comes at an incredible value. For less than $7, this Sam's Club product works as a large dinner party option or as an ingredient to help feed your family for weeks.
