It sounds harmless, silly even. But for residents of the Belhaven neighborhood in Jackson, Mississippi, it's becoming something of a serious concern: Bowls of mashed potatoes are showing up everywhere and no one knows where they are coming from, reported the Washington Post.

A serving of mashed potatoes offers a small amount of protein about 2 grams and 18 grams of carbohydrate.
Of those carbs, roughly 2 grams are from fiber, or about 6 percent of the daily value. If you follow a low-carb diet, subtract the fiber from the total carbs to arrive at the net carbs of the dish. An indigestible part of plant foods, fiber contributes to digestive health by keeping your bowel movements regular, which in turn helps prevent colon diseases. Dietary fiber also supports heart health and weight management.

You seem to know a lot about mashed potatoes.
Have you been in Jackson Mississippi lately? Can you account for your whereabouts lately?

Examine the store monitor cameras and receipts.”

The perps are probably from Idaho. Idaho doesnt get much attention in the news.

I just wish they would eat what I put out there. I slave over a hot kitchen all day and they just throw it away?
