Making Factory Mashed Potatoes is a Highly Automated Process 🥔 Inside the Factory | Smithsonian

Making factory mash is a multi-step process: first, the potatoes are spun at a rate of 1200 RPMs, then they’re sliced into cubes which are rapidly examined by 6 different cameras for defects–all before the cooking process has even begun!

They blanch the potatoes for 2 minutes so they don't turn to mush...? But they are making them mashed potatoes???

Shockingly dirty, I can't believe they actually let anyone see their filthy cutters, it's disgusting!
Name the brand please so we can avoid them! oh well, luckily I only use fresh potatoes in our household, would never eat pulp like that
