About Potatoes, mashed, ready-to-eat
Ready-to-eat mashed potatoes are a convenience product: already cooked, already seasoned, and typically made with some fat worked in to give them body.

They work fine as a quick side when there is no time to peel and boil, and they reheat without fuss. Protein and fat are modest, and starch dominates the profile.
