So Veeky Forums, why are you still making mashed potatoes when jacket potatoes are the clearly superior choice?

When making mashed potatoes, you have to:
>peel the potatoes
>cut the potatoes
>boil the potatoes
>mash the potatoes
>add milk and butter
>mix it all together

With jacket potatoes you have to:

>tastier
>you get to enjoy the nice crispy skin

All right, I'll bite... I've never before heard the term "jacket potato".

Me either. Baked potatoes are good and all, but they're really just a vehicle for sour cream

Because Im an adult and can have potatoes anyway Id like them

>jacket potato

this guy gets it

That's why I made this thread. Open your mind, jacket potatoes can be so much more.

I've had them a hundred different ways, but that doesn't stop be from just slopping on half a tub of sour cream 90% of the time

OP here, are you faggots retarded?

Yes, I get it. You've all never heard the term jacket potato before and you're proud of your ignorance. Now stop talking about my use of jacket potato and start talking about the actual topic at hand: jacket potatoes vs. mashed potatoes

Why are you still eating white flavourless white potatoes like some fatass when you could be eating naturally delicious and neutrient rich sweet poatoes?

>vs.
Nah, both have their place

Never heard of jacket potatoes. Is this some kind of slang for putting your balls in the ass crack of another man? Fucking faggots and your jacket potatoes...

That's a pretty big jacket

You're thinking of the taint tent.
Jacket potatoes is a name for psych-ward retards.

i don't peel potatoes when i mash them

Oh man, I had a solid chuckle at that one

So OP, why are you still making baked potatoes when you can just straight up bite into a raw potato?

Because he has no one to have sex with.

I hate mashed potatoes and love me a plain baked potato, and even I hate your thread.

Britbong detected. I still don't understand why you call them 'jacket' potatoes; they are simply potatoes

why are you lying?
you don't have to peel them, you don't have to cut them either.
also mashed potatoes taste better than "jacket potatoes" if you don't add a sauce or something
