I think there are a lot of people who could learn a lil’ something about TEAMWORK from these elephants. Absolutely beautiful creatures.

Oh boy! Time for another product review! I just tested out the new McCain Purely Potatoes® for BzzAgent.
Basically, what you get is a bag of pure potato chunks (choice of white or sweet potato) that you toss in the microwave for about 11 -13 minutes, season to your own taste preferences, and mash into a quick and easy side dish. It certainly does cut down on a lot of prep/cooking time. Quite convenient if you are in a hurry to throw a meal together.
I chose the white potato chunks because the hubby doesn’t like sweet potatoes. Always a big hit around here, I tried making my good old fashioned garlic mashed potatoes. They weren’t the best and seemed a bit thick and dry, though I am hopeful if I’d gone ahead and added more milk and butter they could have been better. Not sure if I’ll ever find out… neither myself or the hubby finished what was on our plate and we didn’t bother keeping the leftovers. Not a good sign around these parts.
Would I buy them on my own dime? Considering a 10lb bag of potatoes (10+ meals) costs $1.97 on sale and McCain Purely Potatoes® (1-2 meals) costs around $2.49 on sale, I’d have to say probably not. I enjoy cooking and am fortunate to have plenty of free time to do it at the moment.
