The real issue is that the normal "panic reaction" of lifting off the throttle in such situations is fatal on FWD vehicles. The sliding back overtakes the gripping front in short order.
Correct technique is to accelerate out of it, allowing the gripping fronts to pull the thing back into line. Find a snowy, deserted car park and practice to ingrain the response.
