Merriam-Webster defines coleslaw as 'a salad made of raw sliced or chopped cabbage and often additional ingredients (such as shredded carrots or raisins) tossed in a usually creamy dressing' — establishing cabbage + creamy (mayonnaise-type) dressing; the stored 'mayo or vinegar' alternative is not contradicted, as vinegar slaws are a recognised non-creamy variant, but this definition itself covers the creamy form.
