you know, this Tater Tot shortage has GOT to be remedied


Dec 23, 2022, 4:01 PM

when you actually find them, there's a limit on how much you can buy. Plus they've dang near doubled in price.

Been going on for seems like a couple years now. Enough is enough.

Honestly did not know this was a thing.

There’s never been a shortage of them here that I can recall. Daughter loves them so I’m buying them pretty regularly.

Wait a minute. A potato shortage? In Idaho? Here’s why.
Idaho has a potato shortage. If you haven't heard about it already or noticed fewer and fewer potatoes in your grocery store's produce section, you will soon. So what's behind the spud shortage?

1) Why do ya have to have tots, laddy?


Dec 23, 2022, 4:33 PM

2)ya can make a reasonable facsimile of a tot with shredded potaytoes and a cast iron skillet. Think like an omelet made of tato folded over on itself once it’s browned.

3)Christamighty, I reckon we’re Irish for a bit. Ull go find me shillelagh.

ya, been buying these as a stopgap

tots are that perfect blend between fries and hash browns, I just prefer them best. You can bake/airfry them and they turn out great every time. Crispy outside, soft inside. No mess, no oil frying, no cleanup.

Yeah, this happens every few years. Periodic potato

shortages happen all the time. That's why they're so expensive.

I'm calling BS.
