Discount Dixie Carb Counters Classic Instant Mashers - Low Carb Potatoes Substitute


Hands down the worst "food" I have had in 6 months of Atkins eating, and very possibly vying for the worst thing I have EVER put in my mouth.

It looks like powder, floury coming out of the package. But with some liquid it comes to a reasonable look, simulating the appearance of mashed potatoes. That is where the resemblance ends. On the first bite, you start out with the hope that here is a product you can use. Nearly immediatly you will notice the textural difference. There is a grainy dustyness that is apparent. But, its bound to be different, so you power on. Texture is only part of it, and the difference is not horrible, just different.

Very very soon thereafter, your tastebuds will tell you the rest of the story. There is no "potato" taste. It tastes more akin to some sort of wheat product. Ok, whatever. But then you realise there is another taste. Something akin to alum powder. And it is horrible. So much so that you swallow quickly and wash it out, and take a rapid bite of something else to get rid of it. a few moments later, you will convince yourself that since you paid for this, you will try again. It couldnt have been all THAT bad. But it is. And the third little nibble 20 minutes later is equally horrible.

Later that night you may notice that it drys more like a dough than a mash, and wonder what happens if you bake it. The answer is nothing good. Same taste. Not worth the time.

Do yourself a favor and skip this product. I hate cauliflour, but even blended cauli is better than this. I am stumped to think of ANY food item that is not better than this. Not pickled pigs feet, for sure. I suppose Durian is a match, but I would literally rather eat worms. If you buy it, don't say I didn't warn you.Get more detail about Dixie Carb Counters Classic Instant Mashers - Low Carb Potatoes Substitute.
