It's easier to pay a few bucks and have somebody else cook for you than it is to have to slave away in the kitchen for half an hour. I prefer to buy the frozen mashed potato coz when I'm cooking all I have to do is throw it in the pan and stir occasionally. No peeling, no cutting, no boiling then mashing, no effort... Just throw it in the pan. It also takes a lot longer to go off, my wife and I don't go through a lot, so buying a bag of potatoes is largely pointless. We don't really care about paying the extra, for the convenience of the frozen mash. |

Beer! :drool Seriously though, I think an extra tax on heavily processed foods (no matter if fats or white deaths or sugar replacements) is the go! |
