Why have I only found out about this now ranting beats Smash hands down which is my go-to since forever.

They only do like 2 serving size packets though.
Is there anywhere that does like a bigger packet/tin of the stuff you can get like Smash?

Yeah a lot of people do, but sometimes when you don't have potatoes lying around for real mash, instant mash is a decent substitute in my book.

My daughter loves this stuff. Quite expensive (for what it is) at full price, but it’s often on special offer.

Tesco amongst other places, they do different flavours.
I've tried the buttery one and the cheese flavour so far.
Very nice.

I would recommend the Tesco frozen mash, it’s a better compromise than the instant stuff.

Of course, it’s still no substitute for the real thing

Just found this thread. It's a big YES for me.........and finally for Wifey. She would refuse to even try them a few years back! A couple of fish pies, cottage pies and faggots with mash and onion gravy later I told Her rofl

Next up will be my all time winter warmer - layered cheese, onion and sliced potato using this............



My Father, god bless him would, not approve nono
