Potatoes are famously incredibly rare and only keep for a few hours after being picked so I can totally see the purpose of a product like this

The bag isn't THAT wet (just enough chemicals to keep it from going purple AND to make getting good hashbrowns nigh impossible without more effort than it took to shred it in the first place) but yeah. Check your refrigerated lunch meats and cheese displays at your local supermarket.

I personally love them for "breakfast for dinner" or a week night (blasphemous) burrito. They are shit because they take so long to properly crisp up, but you can get them into perfect burrito texture in like 10-15 minutes on the stove.

And yeah. Unshredded chunks are incredibly common. First time I saw like half a potato though.

Blasphemous burrito sounds awesome

Could be a band name Halloween Taco Bell item

The possibilities are endless

Americans would protest that it’s against their beliefs and insist that the burrito gets replaced by a “Holy guacamole burrito” with mini crosses panini pressed into it.

Well as an American that sounds about right for some people

Aw, now I wish I hadn't broken out the grater. Who will carry this ring to Mordor now?

I've been using a vegetable julienne slicer to make my own. Better than a shredder for more consistent sizing. It's saved me a fortune by using raw potatoes instead of buying the bagged stuff.

It's at that point you realize that you're a fool for paying so much extra for someone to peel and shred a potato

You reached the end

My shredded potatoes came with some disassembly required. | Spyke
