Best grater for homemade coleslaw

[MandaC]

Can anyone recomend a grater for homemade coleslaw. The carrot and cabbage seem to come out ok with the one I have, but I end up having to chop the onion in as it grates like mush. What do other people o?

You're probably better off chopping it, I'd reckon. Its certainly quicker to chop an onion than it would be to grate it. Theres alot of water in an onion so its hard not to get it mushy. Could always ball it up afterward in a towel and twist the towel at the top of the ball to squeeze all the liquid out if you really wanted to usea grater.
