Packaged Mashed Potato Products

Idahoan Foods is Adding New Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potatoes

— July 21, 2024 — Lifestyle
The popular potato product manufacturer Idahoan Foods is expanding its portfolio with the addition of three new varieties of its Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potatoes.

Made with Idaho potatoes grown in the region's rich, volcanic soil, all of the new Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potatoes offer a premium mashed potatoes experience. Each package features light, fluffy, and buttery mashed potato that can be prepared in less than a minute with nothing more than the addition of some water. The product also comes in three tasty varieties: Idahoan Buttery Homestyle Value Size 12-oz Mashed Potatoes, Idahoan Dairy-Free Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potatoes, and Idahoan Reduced Sodium Buttery Homestyle Mashed Potatoes. As Ryan Ellis, Vice President of Marketing at Idahoan Foods, explains, "These new innovations are a way to make our brand easier to enjoy for more people.”
