Why the fuck hasn't someone figured out how to properly package and sell pre-peeled potatoes, particularly of the russet variety?

If you don't like your fries/mashed/baked potatoes with skin, you guzzle cum.

I actually do like all of those things with the skin included. Some recipes call for the skin to be peeled, however.

Even those of us that guzzle cum like skins on our spuds.

I'm guessing you're a dishwasher at a low end casual dining establishment who was punished with peeling a bulk of potatoes for getting caught eating off the returned plates; listen Jimmy, even if pre-peeled potatoes existed they would just find another way to punish you for being a dumbass.

So peel them. It's easy. Why would you pay more money for someone else to have pre-peeled them for you?

In case you haven't figured it out yet, pre-"anything" food is more expensive than it's natural state. Chicken wings are more expensive than whole chickens. Bone-in steaks are cheaper than boneless, etc.

Depends on how long ago it was peeled. The skin keeps the garlic fresh. Once you remove it it starts to lose flavor faster than it otherwise would.

It'd cost annoying amounts of money, while it takes less than thirty seconds to peel a potato.
Only Russet potatoes have a skin that is worth peeling anyway, and they're large enough to make peeling not too painful.
Anyone who peels Yukon Gold or Redskins is a punter.

I'm gonna move out in a week, I'll never peel a damn potato before cooking. It's just unnecessary. I like the skin.

>> No.4822175

>>4822063

In my experience the difference is very minimal assuming you use it by the "use by" date. It's not like the pre-chopped stuff that tasted like rotten asshole.

The only potatoes you need to ever be eating anyway are Yukon Golds.

They sell cans of peeled potatoes. I'm fairly certain they also exist frozen.

The problem is oxidation. I also don't see why you can't just peel your potatoes. If you insist on doing so before they are cooked, you can use abrasive gloves or an abrasive sponge.

why do people bother peeling potatoes in the first place? you can eat the peel you know
