I COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW SALTY THESE ARE!
Looking forward to a nice tasty tater treat to go along with my egg, I slapped a handful of these on the hot griddle with some unsalted butter.
My first bite was a shocker. Don't get me wrong, I like salt on my food but this was ridiculous. After a couple more tastes, I wondered if I had unthinkingly salted them heavily and started a new batch which turned out the same.
Then I looked at the label and was astounded at the amount of sodium.
280mg or 12% of a person's daily limit. That's horrible!
Ore-Ida is the brand I usually buy, so I checked their nutritional facts and found that they only have 15mg or 1% of the daily maximum.
Needless to say, I tossed the rest of the bag and decided to warn people of this artery-hardening concoction.
Choose for yourself, but please pay close attention to the nutritional label on any prepared food you purchase.
