It tastes fine, and if you’re in a rush then go for it. But it’s not as nice and is much more expensive than home making

Buying, peeling, boiling and mashing potatoes is a fucking mugs game. Every aspect of it. That said, I’ve never purchased ready-mashed mashed potato before…

don’t eat enough butter or milk to justify ever buying it just to make mash, so its ready mash 4 life.

Both of these are things that anyone sensible would avoid because of cost rather than snobbery imo

boiled potatoes are better anyway.

Was going to windmill in with “everything’s fine, stop judging people ffs” but then this example came up. Inexcusable.

There’s no point engaging with him, the lad’s ideal meal is a couple of peeled, lightly salted boiled potatoes and a can of Stella.

It’s slightly thinner so cooks in 8 minutes instead of 10. I know.
