So my wife likes baked sweet potatoes - doesn't like regular bakers. No, I don't know what's wrong with her. Moving on...

Recently, we had some people over and she grabbed one of the potatoes out of the bag we had sitting on the counter thinking it was a sweet potato, and cooked it. Didn't realize until it was done that, it was in fact, a regular potato. No worries, added some cream, garlic powder, salt and pepper and used a hand mixer and had fluffy mashed potatoes literally 2 minutes later.

Mashed potatoes are so easy to make, that videos like this are infuriating because of how complicated they make it seem.

It's like one of those as seen on TV ads where the real problem is the person's own stupidity except the product here seems to be a "quirky" instagrammable video.

I do eat them with the peels on. Even when I eat them raw (YES! I scrub them first, alright?).

Agreed, but disliking a regular baked potato, when you regularly eat fries, mashed potatoes and 5,000,000 other variations of the same food? My wife is loving weird. I mean, I tolerate love her and all, but holy poo poo.

No, it makes sense. I'm not a huge fan of baked potato but I like mash (not that much), chips etc. Every other variety I can think of has a lot more flavour/fat/salt applied and a much higher surface area:volume ratio.

Yeah, I think most people just don't know how to properly bake a potato. It was something I had to learn after destroying my microwave with one.

Yej but i mean kimchi and ramen and grilled cheese!?

And also what the guy below said starbucks is actually trash. As are most chain coffee shops imo. Always go to an independent roaster because they are always super into their coffee and make an awesome cup :)

The first one did a pretty good job. I lost some egg and the hot dog started to slip out on the second one, so I had to eat it more savagely.

Your life and your quest end here.


I don't like this and I don't want to eat it, but I cannot condone pizza rules of any kind. There are fundamental truths upon which this thread - and indeed all of civilisation - is based. We may disagree about what is a sandwich, we may differ in our appreciation of loose corn, but the one thing we all have, that holds us all together, is the simple fact that there are NO. PIZZA. RULES. If we don't have that, what do we have?
