Potato Shortage

Sam's is the only one that is carrying HJ potatoes.

Hungry Jack Mashed Potatoes - NOT!

This product is not the same Hungry Jack Mashed Potatoes that I have bought for years. The original product looked like white flakes and tasted like real potatoes. This product looks like yellow corn meal and does not even come close to what real potatoes taste like. I wrote to the Hungry Jack asking for a verification as to if this is a replacement to what I was used to getting OR if this is indeed a different product. They did not answer that question, they sent me a coupon for $4 off any Hungry Jack product and said they would report to the quality department. So I am assuming that this is a replacement of what they used to make because the other style box and product have not been in my local stores for many months now. I will never buy this product again. Back to peeling real potatoes for me.

These are awful

Why did Hungry Jack take the best instant mashed potatoes and ruin them? These are just awful, texture is no longer flakes but powder and taste is so bad I threw them out! Go back to the original and I’ll buy them again but not this hot gooey mess.

what happened to the flakes?

Why did hungry Jack change the recipe? These are terrible. No longer fluffy and delicious. They are heavy, flat, and a bit runny. The recipe and directions both changed. I followed it perfectly. The potatoes are NO longer flakes they are teeny tiny little hard balls. I could especially tell the difference when I was whipping them. It splashes very easily now so be careful to not get splashed in the face with hot liquid/potatoes like I did. It takes longer for the potato balls to dissolve. The end product doesn’t taste the same. It’s bland. And the texture is heavy and gross. I’m returning the other boxes I bought. I guess I’m stuck with the box I opened. What a disappointment.

Changed product - new version is TERRIBLE

I've bought this product for a long time. On my second container since the revision to the product. Went from flakes to granules. They changed the formula of product to liquid, but that is SO FAR OFF. They say it takes a cup to make a certain amount but it takes much more to have the same consistancy. This is my last container, they have ruined the product!

Do not buy! I told ypu so.

These are not flakes like the Hungry Jack that I have always bought at stores but grains. All they make into are horrible soup mixture. They should be taken off the market. I hope I can take them back otherwise I am throwing them in the trash. They don't even deserve one star.

Amazing!

I love Hungry Jack and this is the only way to get it now. As long as you don't put in the butter, it is perfect. If you use chicken broth add a spoonful of sour cream, so it is not as salty.

Worst instant potatoes ever

We are used to the Idahoan instant potatoes. For some reason our Sam's Club store stopped carrying the Idahoans and started carrying these. They are terrible. Out of a family of five, no one wanted them.
