Augason Farms Dehydrated Potato Shreds Can - Gluten Free Dehydrated Survival Food with Long Shelf Life - Emergency Food Supply for Camping, Prep & Everyday Meals - 31 Servings

I've been stocking up on Augason Farms canned foods for a while and I usually get an extra can to try out before I continue to stock up. These shredded potatoes are great. They rehydrate very quickly and make great hash browns by themselves with a little seasoning or in a casserole which I tried. After rehydrating I really couldn't tell that they were previously freeze dried. Potatoes are very filling and these cans are very inexpensive so I consider them a staple in any emergency food supply. These do not come sealed in pouches inside of the can like some of the other Augason Farms canned products but that's not a problem in my opinion. These are the kind of thing I'd expect to use the whole can at once. Toss a little butter or oil and salt and pepper on these and you have great hash browns for a small group of people. Easy to prepare and serve, and a great value!

If you're into Survival & Preparedness, it's almost a necessity that you have some Augason Farms or Mountain House foods in your survival/"food preps" ... both are incredibly expensive ... except Augason Farms has great sales several times year ... when they do, STOCK UP! These freeze-dried foods last - according to the label- for "25 Years" when unopened & gently stored, and most people agree they would last much longer ... and in this particular case, Potatoes happen to be a food you can last for A LONG TIME in an emergency ... by the time of the mid-1800s Great Irish Famine (or 'Potato Famine') , a hugely significant percentage of the Irish population was subsistent on *strictly Potatoes* - all day, every day - like, Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner, - because it was all they had - BUT ... it kept them alive and with minimal health problems ... and if you were able to add some Buttermilk to pour over the potatoes / cook them with, it made the meal nutritionally complete and you could not just live, but be relatively healthful , on just potatoes [and some buttermilk] ... this is a great product at a great GREAT PRICE [sometimes] and will last you forever, unopened. And who doesn't like them some Hash Browns / Home Fries etc. So many ways you can dress them up!

I was raised on dehydrated hashbrowns and these do no disappoint. They are smaller than the ones I was raised on but the taste is the same. I have bought several of these all have been good quality.

I like these potatoes. Stored to last a long time. Fewer preservatives than competitors.

would give 5 stars if it were not so pricey. great shelf life. easy to store, easy to cook. can be used in recipes or separate. good flavor. great item to have in pantry

These are long shelf life and taste good can't go wrong with potato shreds

Company has impressed me with all thier products. Never cooked any, save for emergencies

Very good flavor, better than your average potato.

These are excellent for Hash Browns. I have been using Hungry Jacks in the little carton for years, or the Idohan ones, and since moving to Australia, they are not available here. I actually like the taste better, by adding onion powder, seasoned salt and pepper to our own taste. If you want even cooking and browning, I use about peanut oil. It is much crisper and clean tasting. For 2 people, about 3/4 to 1 cup of shreds are plenty once hydrated. I only soaked them in hot tap water for about 10 to 15 minutes, drain excess water off and they came out perfect.

Unfortunately 1 of the tins was dented, other than that all ok.
