Excerpt:

When we first unsealed the Idahoan Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potato Cups, we were intrigued by their promise of convenience without sacrificing taste. Each 1.5-ounce cup is a sealed package of ready-to-heat mashed potatoes, perfect for busy weeknights or quick meals. We tested them alongside freshly made mashed potatoes and were surprised by how close they performed in both texture and flavor, with a buttery, smooth consistency that rivals homemade when heated properly. The portability was a standout—our lunches traveled effortlessly without spills or mess. While we admit fresh potatoes will always feel superior for ultimate control, these cups offer a surprisingly satisfying middle ground. The pack of 24 provides ample opportunities for experimenting with seasonings, toppings, or simple reheating, making them a convenient staple in our kitchen.
