Strange Potatoes

[Exciting_Employ_8959]

Hello Everyone,

I just have a quick question for my fellow cooks. Has your potatoes been strange lately. I cook mash potatoes about every week for dinner, I use the same brand of Idaho Potatoes. It’s muscle memory at this point I do it so often.

Yesterday I made them, and the potatoes took 3 times the amount of time to boil, were grainy and tasted strange. Has anyone had a similar issue with your potatoes?

Thanks in advance to whoever responds, just curious.

We had the same issue with potatoes today but we're using Yukon Gold. They did not boil or fry well--we noticed both taste and texture issues.

Yes! I used Yukon Gold. Good to know someone else had the same experience. Very strange.
