User Comments:
- "This coleslaw has a great kick to it! The jalapenos add a nice touch." - John Smith

Special Precautions and Tips:
- Use fresh jalapenos for best flavor. If you can't find fresh ones, you can use jarred ones, but their flavor may not be as intense.
- Adjust the amount of jalapenos according to your heat preference. Start with less and add more if you want more spice.
- If you prefer a less creamy coleslaw, you can reduce the amount of mayonnaise. You can also add more vinegar for a more tangy flavor.
