There has been a lot of changes to labeling where it works with commercial distribution.
Personally, I use the potatoes like you bought, but most of that comes from being in a commercial kitchen and home cooks shouldn't have to put up with it.
Get real red potato slips if you want those. Personally, I plant chefs reds and white (which aren't white, really) from the grocery store because I'm sorta use to cooking hundreds of pounds at a time of those. ;)
Long story short... you are very correct.

Thanks, I”ll keep looking for the real red potatoes, I think that they can be had if you buy the bulk/not bagged. But like I said, the franken potatoes were good- just not what I wanted.
