Augason Farms Dehydrated Potato Slices Can

A super product, quick and easy to prepare to use any recipe you might choose, delishes, and comes at a fair price too

I buy Augason products when they are on sale. Been doing this on and off for a few years now. Always been a bit of a "prepper", since I was a toddler it seems, haha (In my 40s now). I has served me well through power outages, sicknesses, unemployment, and even bigger stuff like the pandemic, and now... *vaguely gestures around* everything else that is going on. I've never been one to be without when anything has come up. I never did "emergency food" if only because I didnt have the budget. I would stick with typical foods and try to store them well. Well now I have a little more wiggle room in my budget, and with the on and off sales of long term storage (20+ years), I take advantage when I can. I remember buying some Augason eggs back in 2019 for $19. Today? $33-56 for same container, depending on the day. And so, I haven't opened this 1 lb 1 ounce can of potato slices.. sorry. I dont intend to any time soon. I am familiar with dehydrated potatoes and I tend to prefer them cubes up as potatoes can be a little rubbery. I expect these may be the same. I dont really care as this is for extra long term storage, and I have other canned potatoes and fresh to use first, as well as hopefully grow my own. But I wanted to shore up my options. Having some soups and such just adds flavor to other options used. I can add more veg, or a protein, or beans, or simply have some bread to dip into it. Or I can use as way to flavor something. I have a slew of reviews to write on various Augason products, and so they will all be pretty much the same: Super long term storage (25+ years), no matter what the weight, it will be stuffed into a #10 can (that reads, "number ten", not ten pound. I see that mistake in reviews). They keep sizes uniform. Next size up is a round bucket, next size up gets into the rectangular buckets. This is for storage that can be uniform, etc. So yes, you may buy a 7 ounce item that is volume wise that takes up a smidge of space, but it will be packed into a large #10 container. Just remember, all food products are sold based on weight, not volume anyway. All of my containers have been in perfect condition. Maybe one day soon I will try one container out and see how the product actually is. Everyone's SHTF scenario varies. It could be bad weather (tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, ice storms), could be illness, could be road trip gone wrong (you do keep supplies in your car too, right?!), could be unemployment, or power outage, or lack of transportation, or oven/fridge/other appliance break down, or bigger stuff like plagues, food shortages, supply chain issues, *cough WW3 cough*, etc. No matter the situation we all need some things to get by: we need is food, water, shelter, some hygeine and medical stuff, and so on. You dont have to stack "emergency supplies" but you do need to stack shelf stable food items. Buy a few extra things every single time you go to the store. If you get to a spot that you feel comfortable and have the budget, then grab the "emergency" items like Augason offers. I like adding it in and just forgetting about it. I give 5 stars because the cans always are in perfect condition, they have regular sales, are good about shipping items as soon as they can, have lots of items to choose from, and so far seem to be of good quality.

These are a great pantry staple. Not waiting in a disaster here lol We use these often. Perfect for camping!

Versatile and easy. My hiking buddy and I agreed to always have some of these on hand. So versatile and easy to prepare. Nothing bad to say honestly, good quality product thats worth the money.

Good

Finally got around to opening one of these and was surprised that they are actually pretty good!! I added boiling water as stated but, let it sit for like an hour instead of 15 minutes, drained and i fried them up in butter and they were good and not chewy.. i eat low carb so don't eat potatoes normally but, was craving some, these did the job and since they are food for a year after opening, i can enjoy them once in awhile without them going bad.. these are better than what i remember the idaho ones being in the past, these are thicker..

Good sale price ! Will get back to you in 20 years when I open it

These dehydrated potato slices are a good option to have on hand for emergency food storage. They store easily, have a long shelf life, and rehydrate well when prepared according to the directions. Once cooked, the texture and flavor are better than expected for a dehydrated product. They work well in soups, casseroles, or skillet meals and are versatile enough to use in different recipes. Like most emergency foods, they’re meant for preparedness rather than everyday use, but it’s reassuring to have them available when needed. Preparation is simple, and the results are consistent. Overall, a solid choice for food storage and emergency preparedness.

No lo he usado pero llego bien la lata sin golpes. La caducidad es muy amplia y fue elaborado este año.
