From the NPR article: Whereas one pound of Russets makes two servings of mashed potatoes, one pound of lima beans makes 13 servings of mashed beans.
???? People eat over 1/2 pound of mashed potatoes for a serving??? A pound of potatoes should yield at least 4 to 6 servings....
One pound of mashed lima beans yield 13 servings... LOL! People still don’t like lima beans, even renamed, or even mashed! That’s slightly over 1 oz per serving.
Meijers had 5# potatoes for 99 cents here in Indiana. At least 2 weeks in a row. We are having chicken and dried bread stuffing because that’s what’s in the freezer.
