Question

How long does an opened box of instant mashed potatoes last?

Answer 1

Now look here- Firstly why are you using such stuff? Surely making your own mash from actual potato is far more satisfying, and tasty?

The answer is probably 3 days.

Just don't buy any more.

Please

OK?

Answer 2

I keep a box of instant potatoes on the shelf for emergencies like a thickener for soups or in case the REAL MASHED POTATOES need extra potato when I'm adding the hot milk and butter to it.....but to really really answer your question....there is an expiration date on the box so go by the manufacturer's information printed there. Plus....in the warm months like summer little weevils bugs might find a way into the box so keep it in a cool dry place.

There is really nothing wrong with using these instant foods but for taste and quality the REAL THING is always best!

HEY...how do you say POTATO...???

PO TAH TOE

PO TAY TOE

LOL

Enjoy your POTATOES,
