If you really want a change, try adding the Prawn cocktail to a half of an Avocado pear instead of lettuce. make sure the Avocado is ripe and the taste is terrific.

i guess because they like it..prawn cocktail, made properly is a classic starter.

it tastes nice, it's not a heavy meal that's going to fill u up before u get to the main course, and it's pretty simple to make.

I do not think that there is any tradition as to why they do this. Is is a yummy starter, somewhat light, and very not complicated to make.
