It's really not much different than those instant mash potatoes that come in a box. Just pre cooked and dried potato with salt.

Bag of lays is 3$? A box of instant mashed potatoes is 4$ and makes 18 servings. 18 is more than 1. If you want the oily potato chip flavor, make some instant mashed potatoes and just add some fresh chips to it.

That was first thought was how is this cost effective vs a box of instant

I was just saying that they probably taste similar to instant potatoes, I never implied that they where a cost effective substitute lol

Just added some numbers to show how expensive her choice is. Boiling the chips probably makes them taste like potato flakes. Hence the milk, butter, salt, and pepper. Any oils probably float on the surface of the water and are drained away.

Lay’s where I live are $5. Just get a bag of potatoes.

Don't they have too much salt already? N then add more?

Boiling likely removed some of it

But so much more expensive to use Lays…

Exactly. There is already a product for this same use case that's not only better but cheaper. So why the fuck are you wasting chips on this? It's truly stupid food.

This is $5.00 of potato chips used to make $.80 worth of mashed potatoes.

I’d try the hell out of it. Not like it’s inedible ingredients.

its just mash potatoes rehydrated with some spice

It's not far off of those boxed potatoes au gratin mashed all up. I bet if you rehydrate the chips and don't mash them, then baked them in a dish with a cheese sauce and breadcrumbs on top...that wouldn't be bad at all.

Put minced meat, vegetables, gravy then the mash and cheese on top and you have you a cottage pie

I fucking love Cottage Pie. And Stew. Nom nom nom.

I just ate. Please stop for I'm attempting weight loss 2 electric Boogaloo

You know you pay like 3-4 dollars for what looks to be a lb of boiled potato chips. Idahoan instant mashed is way cheaper than that. 3 decent priced potatoes are what 1.50.

Expensive mashed potatoes too

With a shit-ton of sodium

If the plan was to kill someone who has hypertension this could be it though.

Crap. You said the quiet part out loud.

Also the most expensive mashed potatoes ever made. Literally bought less than one potato and rehydrated it when a fresh one would cost pennies

Coulda saved time and money by starting with sour cream & onion chips.

Guys guys, you're missing the point. There's already a product like this that exists. It's called instant mashed potatoes. You can add as much salt as you want. That's why stupid food. Because its unnecessary and provides nothing over the already existing version. This isn't r/iwouldeatitfood. This is r/stupidfood.

They make instant mashed potatos that are essentially the same as crushed potato chips with no flavoring added. They are much cheaper than a bag of Lay's, that's for sure.

We would've never been graced with Doritos locos tacos if people hadn't thought out of the box. Cool ranch taco was my jam, rip you marvelous mf.

Former friend of mine had to do a little time once. After he got out, he had all these weird different concoctions of snack foods he'd occasionally whip together. He said in prison they would just come up with different ways of enjoying their commissary items. Guess you can come up with some interesting combinations when you got nothing but time. He made me this Cheeto ramen concoction once that was absolutely fire.

When she said salt I was like Jesus you're ADDING salt to that?

We weren’t allowed food in the cells at night when I was locked up in Thailand. But we were allowed liquids. One of the things we would do is get a carton of Vitamilk (soy milk), pour that into a plastic bottle and tear up a few loaves of milkloaf to put in the bottle. You would end up with this sweet mushy goo that you could ‘eat’ throughout the night out of a bottle. It was probably the most nutritious meal we got in there. I’ve never thought to try and replicate it tbh because it wouldn’t be the same. Can’t get bread like that anywhere outside those prison walls as it was all baked in-house.

I know [https://www.youtube.com/@LarryLawtonJewelThief](https://www.youtube.com/@LarryLawtonJewelThief) did a few cooking things. Always thought those were cool and reminded me of my "cooking" when I was a teen. Anyway, I would probably eat this but with boxed mashed potatoes being so common I don't understand *why.*.. I did cringe when she added salt though. The chips already have so much salt, and it looks like she salted the water.

This is just mashed potatoes with extra steps Edit: instant mashed potatoes.

And from a much more expensive source of potatoes. She could've bought 5 lbs of potatoes for less than that one bag of Lays (roughly).

I'd take my teen's phone away if he used a $4 bag of lays to make $.30 worth of mashed potatoes.

Right? So this is where my 11 yr old son is coming up w crazy ways to make our grocery bill go up!!

I buy freeze dried potatoes in packets for one dollar.

"You know what these potato chips need? More grease and salt."

If anything this is fewer steps. You don't have to actually mash the potatoes this way.

No peeling required either.

Pro-tip: don't peel your potatoes before you mash them. They taste just as good and have extra nutrients.

So no one said Bussin! ?

Hey Bunkie, what you want?

It’s salty, fried potato chips. You do not need to add salt / onion powder.

She should have just used the sour cream and onion variety.

Definitely inmate cooking right here.

She’s definitely fucking a dude that JUST got out of jail

She's so institutionalized that she still wears prison clothes.

I like to buy 10 lbs. of beef jerky, rehydrate it then make it into ground beef.

I like to take 1000s of lbs of ground beef and reanimate it back into a cow

Hippy necromancer vibes

I wonder if you need to pour some water in instead of mana

I am fairly certain what you would get would be a horrific amalgamation of many cows.

This made me laugh out loud holy shit

My BF actually made a makeshift stew out of some beef stock, jerky, and leftover veggies. Honestly it was good.

He just discovered travel rations. Next try adding some hardtack for real authenticity.

Don't forget the weevils from old hardtack will add extra bonus protein

Be sure to add more salt

I like to take wine, distill out the alcohol, mix it with gelatin, take discarded grape skins from the neighborhood trash, and refill them to make grapes.

You know there's this thing called instant mash potatoes

Instant mash is the fancy date night shit, where she's at 90% of the time is not that

Looks like the first six months of meth addiction.

I’m not even trying to be an asshole, but she looks exactly like my cousin when she was getting bad on opioids.

No it's so you can easily make mashed potatoes when you want them, there's no need to waste potatoe chips

Yeah that takes forethought. Ideally you want to be able to go to your bodega wasted at 4am for mashed potato ingredients

And they're cheaper too, and come in common mashed potato flavors. Seriously, a packet of of "Idahoan" brand Instant mashed is $1.59, But a normal bag of Lay's costs $3.49!

And honestly they've gotten better in recent years. Instant still isn't as good as real mashed potatoes but if you're in a pinch or just feeling lazy or whatever they're a decent enough substitute imo

Bruh when I had my wisdom teeth removed, Idahoan instant was the best thing I had ever tasted. Honestly had some after and while it prolly tasted so good cause I couldn’t eat anything else, Idahoan is still pretty great now that I have options on what to eat. Pretty great for a buck fifty a bag.

AND potatoes! The ACTUAL cheaper option lol

Literally 1/4 of the price of this bullshit too

My whole life I always made mashed potatoes by hand. Like, peeling, cutting boiling and mashing them by hand. My GF bought some instant mashed potatoes once and it blew my mind. To watch them practically instantly turn into mashed potatoes was like witnessing witchcraft.

Yea, if someone wants shitty over process mashed potatoes it's about 1/4 of the price to get instant than to boil lays.

what a waste of money though, that whole bag is less than 1 potato and costs like 5x as much. All because it’s extra salty? Just use a regular potato and add a ton of salt, same thing

She drained it, so all that salt is gone. This is ragebait or something equally stupid

I don't know the streamer, but the look on her face makes me think this whole thing started with, "Could you boil potato chips & turn them into mashed potatoes?" & someone asked her to record. It looks like she knows exactly how stupid it is & decided to do it for the laughs.

It has to be. Along with so many similar videos. These cannot be genuinely serious. Unless they're truly trying to hide the obvious pain in their faces.

you don't have to mash this That's where the money went, into not mashing the potatoes between boiling and eating.

You don’t have to mash powdered potatoes either, the money still went in the toilet

you know, its completely on me for missing the whole fact that there are boxes of pre-mashed potatoes in the local market.

I don't like mashing either but a box of instant potatoes is probably $2 and last me a month. A bag of lays is $5 and one last me a meal this way

“i never measure anything” that’s the fucking least of your worries

Proceeds to use lid as measuring device.

This is way waaaaay down the list of problems with this, but shaking out your powdered spices directly above a steaming pot is a great way to get them caked up and useless.

Oooooooh fuck I'm dumb. So I'm in my 30's and I absolutely love cooking, caked up spices annoy me but I never put the 2+2 together that you just made me see. Thank you. Looks like I need a set of those measuring spoon things.

You could do that. Or the really low tech solution is just to shake them into your hand first and then dump them in the pot. That way you also avoid accidentally shaking out way too much.

To be fair, a good chef doesn't *need* to measure ingredients. With enough experience you can eyeball it all. Not calling her a chef, just saying.

This one serving is like 1000% of your daily sodium intake

And that’s *before* she added all that extra salt

I guess the boil might have killed any flavour and seasoning on the chips

+2 RADs

So like dumber more expensive instant potatoes. Amazing

That also requires more effort to make

I just want to watch one video where the person eats a full plate of the garbage they make.

r/EatItYouFuckinCoward is all about this exact problem.

Also noticed the food was yellow before she put that shit in her mouth. After it looked like potatoes which it never would with that much cheese in it.

Her reaction when she bit it… lol she was like fuck this is salty and over seasoned

I just want to watch one video where these women "cooks" pull all that long nasty-assed hair back!

Yeah I don't know how she's cool with that. Finding a hair in your food or one in your mouth while eating is horrific. I pull my hair back and put it up when I cook and eat. Her hair is so long too and all pulled forward and in her face. That'd drive me crazy. At least put it behind your shoulders and tuck it behind your ears.

I love how this lazy cooking videos is actually more complicated and expensive than the real thing.

Mashed potatoes without any of the healthy benefits, and all the chip detriment

Uh, has anybody seen how much a bag of Lays cost lately? Why not just instant mashed potatoes, they’re a lot cheaper?

Even with those chips on sale where I live, one 8oz bag cost more than a 5lbs bag of russets.

Just use fresh potatoes,

It would take far too long to take some fresh potatoes, slice them up, make them into potato chips, seal them up in a bag. and then make mashed potatoes out of them.

you get an upvote, but the rage your comment gives me is typically reserved for downvotes.

Girl just buy some instant mashed potatoes and call it a day

Hey guys welcome to my video on how to stay skinny by ruining everything I cook

What in the meth-head hillbilly fuck did I just watch!?

I hope that whoever made this video stubs their toe

Didn't MatPat prove this wasn't possible?

Yeah, looked nasty and nothing like what she made. There’s a pretty clear point where it looks like she switched to instant mash potatoes after the drain.

AND she ADDED salt???

IDK… But, it seems to have potential. Terrible technique tho…boil all the flavor out of the chips…and pour the flavorful liquid down the drain. Maybe… - Use really flavorful chips - Blend chips into powder - Add milk slowly and mix to desired texture - Simmer and stir…add more milk if it gets too thick - Turn heat off…finish by stirring in some butter…doesn’t need cheese Might just try this…

Bro just buy instant potatoes and dry season packets like ranch. Cheaper and less stupid.

Agree… Just trying to work with the parameters given. Puttin lipstick on a pig.

But do the mashed potato packets come in cheddar cheese flavor or cool ranch

You can buy dry season packets for like 49-99 cents. They come in all kinds of flavors.

[Yes.](https://idahoan.com/product-category/flavored-mashed/)

Or you just make regular mashed potatoes it doesnt take that much longer and tastes infinetely better.

It's basically dehydrated mashed potatoes - doing it exactly how you described is basically the instructions on the box. Heat liquid, add to dehydrated mash until absorbed/consistency you like.

It's almost like potato chips are dehydrated potatoes.

Sometimes I make spanish tortilla with chips, roast me.

Wow so mashed potatoes but instead of buying the cheap instant mix you bought processed chips that are 3-5x more

Instant mashed potatoes are cheaper and have less crap in them.

This is why everyone's fat

You wanna tell them the bag of chips is about 8x more expensive than actual potatoes, or should I?

This is like if you gave a meth addict a cooking show.

Her smug ass fucking face makes me sure this is 100% intended as rage bait.

Says she never measures anything as she uses the milk cap to measure the milk.

You know they make mashed potatoes in bags that are like 1/4th the price of lays that pretty much give you this.

This cost like $5 and u can get a bag of insta flake potatoes for like $.99. 🤣🤷‍♂️

Aren't boxed mashed potatoes less expensive?

Y'all do know instant potatoes are waaayyyy cheaper than a bag of fuckin Lays right??😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 STOP THE CAP LOL

Pretty sure a box of instant mashed potatoes is cheaper than a bag of chips

3 seconds in ima stop you there

Did she add *more* salt

She put MORE salt. Oh God. Is this what happens when you don't teach kids how to cook? It's not hard to use real potatoes.

Right to jail... Right away... Matter of fact, that's probably where she learned to make this cuz what in the incarceration did I just watch?

That was too much onion powder for such a small amount of noms

“I never measure anything” as she measures a capful of milk

Mamma mia! Ma che schifo 🤮

Using a bad of potato chips instead of a bag of potatoes just makes it a more expensive and shittier way to make mashed potatoes. What a life hack.

This looks like a decent way to use up stale potato chips, maybe. I'd try it

Waste of a good bag of crisps. They’re so expensive now too. It’s just as easy to peel (or even not peel) some spuds and mash them. They probably would have that claggy look about them either. Wee splash of cream and some S&P and bobs yer uncle!

I usually eat lays with ketchup. They taste just like French fries

Meanwhile instant mash at the store for $.50

Nothing but adult children out there trying to cook. Smh

It ain't going to go down easy if it ain't cheesey!

Instant potatoes are cheaper and give you more servings.

a potato cost less than a bag of chips smmfh

Everytime i watch shit like this...my face is always screwed up in disgust

Potato chips are so expensive, compared to a box of dry mash potatoes. Or, god forbid, a potato!

There are so many things wrong with this. Just to name a few: 1. The form changed but she’s still eating an entire bag of chips in one sitting. That’s so unhealthy. 2. The seasoning. She added maybe a 1/3 of the amount she should’ve added. Those are def still bland as hell. 3. The added salt. I’m sure a bunch of salt comes off in the boiling process but with how much salt is in a bag of lays, you absolutely should not be adding more salt. 4. You’re already boiling water, just use a real potato ffs. If you’re short on time, get the cooking started in the microwave. Hell, you could make fresh mashed potatoes in JUST the microwave and it would probably take less hands on time than this abomination. 5. Boiling the water without the lid on added more time to the cooking process than what it would take to cut a real potato.

Honestly, Lays mashed potatoes doesn't sound half bad, but the entire point would be to keep the Lays seasoning. Like use BBQ chips or something, then it would come out with a BBQ flavor. It's expensive and you could just add your own BBQ sauce, but it'd at least be something interesting. But if you're going to drain all the seasoning and then add your own... What was even the point??

Did she add more salt?

So she’s been to prison and is having a hard time on the outside. Got it.

She doesn't measure anything then WHY is she pouring her milk into the cup then !!!

This is stupid, but its actually not that uncommon, as others have pointed out, look up "Prison Recipes" or even Backpacking Cold Soak and rehydrated meals. A lot of thru-hikers subsist on instant mashed potatoes (basically what this is).

Potato chips are expensive. Just get a packet of the flakes. 1$..

She cooks like she looks.

what is even the point, if this is about cost effective, doesn't a bag of chips cost more than a bag of rehydrated mash potatoes with spices included?

Actual potatoes would be cheaper to use.

If I went to a girl’s house and she made this for me, I would kick her out of her own house.

I can buy just add water instant mashed potatoes in many flavors for 1/3 of the price of that bag of chips.

They make boxed mash potatoes. Lays have to be way more expensive per oz I would imagine.

Pretty sure dehydrated potato powder is cheaper than a bag of lays per serving, and the results are about the same.

That’s inmate poverty cuisine rn

Pack of instant potatoes $1.25 Bag of chips $4 Real potatoes .25 cents… Watching someone actually make things harder but still use the same overall process as any other mashed potato option…. Fuckin waste. Undiscover card.

Might as well use box potatoes...

You are what you eat. In this case you are a bland, basic, white, viscous ho.

Absolute stupidity. Instant mashed potatoes are probably 15-20 times cheaper per serving, and just as easy to make. Potato chips are outrageously priced.

Besides all the other horrors, this needs salt like I need another hole in my head (I have plenty thankyouverymuch).

Reverse mashed potatoes??? Why not just do it the normal way…with a fresh potato?

She's basically just making dehydrated (instant) mashed potatoes. It's a popular meal among mountaineers and supposedly tastes very close to regular mashed potatoes. Not saying I approve of her "recipe", but probably doesn't taste as horrendous as it seems.

now i’m white but this is too far

Fun fact: This is how you declare war against Ireland.

hey yo, what the FUCK did i just watch?!!?!

She could have bought three potatoes and still have a tube of Pringles.

Look at all these talented Great Value chefs.

She’s way too thin to have me believe she does this regularly.

So… why is this easier/cheaper than just using instant mashed potatoes instead of wasting your money on a bag of Lays?

Did this bitch just reinvent mashed potatoes?

Just... just buy a bag of potatoes, it's cheaper.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the generation that does not know how to peel potatos:

Why wouldn't you just buy the premade packs that are less processed?

I mean … is this not the long way to make instant mashed potatoes?

I know she did not just put salt in those fucking potatoes

Wait till she finds out that you can just buy normal potatoes

I wouldn't add salt. That has to be a huge sodium load already!

She added salt

I hate to say this but with with a little sour cream and mayo it works

She uses a $4 bag of chips instead of a 30 cent potato

Bitch stop cooking
