1. Both are gross, IMO
Now, German Potato Salad, that's tasty. Especially with some smoked sausage.

MMMM!

Of course, when you eat that, you can just feel your blood congealing in the arteries.

15. One should never make potato salad with russets -- too mealy.
Edited on Sun May-08-05 04:30 PM by mcscajun
Boiling potatoes, preferably young red-skinned potatoes, are the main ingredient of choice.

5. It can't be a Lutheran potluck
without 30 different varieties of macaroni salad. :)

I don't mind it if it's got some Alaskan Whitefish in it, the fake crab meat.

12. Mayonnaise salads are disgusting
Especially when they have cold pasta in them. My mom makes a terrific potato salad with oil and vinegar dressing, chunks of potato, tomato, and onion (which I pick out) and some oregano.

14. Both! I'll take Both, TYVM.
Edited on Sun May-08-05 04:29 PM by mcscajun
But I voted for Potato Salad, 'cause I made some just the other day. YUM. "Extras": Chopped Egg, Crisp Crumbled Bacon, Chopped Celery, Minced Red Onion.

When I make macaroni salad, and if I'm 'flush' at the time, I put real crab meat in it. Otherwise, it's just celery and bell pepper.

16. My macaroni salad
In addition to the pasta, I use the following ingredients:
Carrots
Celery
Green onion
Salt&Pepper
Mayonaise:enough to coat everything but not enough to be visbile at a distance.

17. Potato salad if it's really good
but if you are just talking about your run of the mill potato salad, I'll take the macaroni salad.

18. Macaroni salad causes the death of millions of semolinas
a year. It is a dish for fascist monsters
