I agree real mash is much tastier. But if you're in a hurry or just feeling too lazy this might be useful.
I always think the same when i see mixes for yorkshire puds and victoria sponges, both of which i like making from scratch.

May be a bargain but disgusting stuff, who buys this when potatoes are so cheap!

actually its nice stuff, had the rest of mine not long ago, who cares how cheap potatoes are when its a **** on, first youve gotta wash them, then peel, then cook them, mash em. like half hours work, or do this in about 2 mins..... i know what i prefer

This is permanent line in Heron if you have one closer, £1 also :smiley:
Personally I only ever use this when I'm hungover and I crave mash, gravy, green beans and chicken! Lol

this stuff is actually great for thickening things, coating things that are to be deep fried, adding to bread to make it nice and soft, and my personal favourite, making gnocchi.

Completely agree, I use it for thickening soups and stews for a better and easier result than cornflour.

Been this price in Heron, poundstrecher, pound shops for £1, no big deal imo :confused:
