Super easy and fast to make. Texture is fantastic once you get everything whipped up. Taste is a bit salty for my personal flavor profile so I mix with a little bit of plain instant potatoes and then it's absolutely perfect. Would definitely buy again even once we're finally out of quarantine!

This is a good brand, but the taste and texture weren’t there. Nobody liked these. I’m sticking to the Idahoan instant potatoes in the carton. Those are awesome. These just didn’t have it. We seem to be in the minority here, but I won’t buy these again.

I usually don’t care to write a review but with these I did. I would never use these for something like thanksgiving or a family dinner, but they are good for a small lunch or snack. The packet is too big for one person so I recommend splitting it in half. You also need a lot more water than the recipe calls for. It is best to add water as you mix and check the dryness.

Awesome instant Potatoes.....the best in America.....very convenient ...goes with about any meal or their excellent as a single dish......add extra hot water or milk and easily mix for a tasty potatoe soup.....maybe add some bacon bits......be creative and enjoy - RW, NC

I fixed a package of these as per instructions. When eating them with brown gravy, it tasted like something went bad-as in taste. I tasted the gravy-it was fine. I tasted the instant Idahoan Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potatoes and there it was. I guess it was supposed to be a buttery flavor, but when you're not expecting it, it tastes more like something has soured. I'm now looking for something to add to the water or substitute the water to hide the 'buttery' flavor. I've got a box with 11 pouches left.

We have been a frequent buyer of many Idahoan products at our grocery stores. We saw the link to buying online through Instagram, so we clicked & were brought to the full line of Idahoan products, including some not available at the store. We are very pleased using the Buttery Homestyle instant potatoes packet; they take about 5 minutes to prepare & cook in the microwave. The texture & taste is very much like from scratch mashed potatoes, just a lot faster to make. We've introduced our grandson to this brand, and he's a regular user of Idahoan instant mashed potatoes too! We can recall back in the day when instant potatoes were introduced, they had a bland weird taste. Idahoan has improved the instant mashed potatoes products 100%. The potatoes taste real and have that familure mashed potatoes texture & creamy buttery taste like homemade ones. Give them a try; they won't disappoint you!

Theses taste homeemade and are my families best pick for company dinner !

No date on all packages, therefore I will throw out per your suggestion, 5 packages 😡

the best mashed potato on market i already use over 300 pack for my restaurant

I do like having mashed potatoes but it's so much work for just one... These make four servings and what I don't eat, I can turn into potato pancakes!!
