Potato flakes

[Health 1st]

Hello,

I'm trying to get over an injury that's causing me a lot of pain. To help myself not be on my feet too much, I used Bob's Red Mill Potato Flakes 2 times this past week. Are these flakes MWL compliant? They're only made out of non-GMO potatoes, but are technically processed.

I put the flakes in a bowl with some garlic powder + Benson's Table Tasty salt-free seasoning, poured in boiling water, stirred, + ate.

I would say they are probably acceptable for the starch portion of a meal when combined with water and adherent seasonings, since they are just dehydrated potatoes with no non adherent ingredients added. Here's a link to a brief discussion.

Mark,

Thank you; this is great to know! Thank you for the link, too.

Here is some more info on them...

There are many brands/varieties of them and some are just plain potatoes and some have added salt, sugars, oils, etc., so make sure you check them out.

Here is an item that is a great option. It is potato flakes made from 100% potatoes that are just dried and you just add hot water. While I am sure there are varieties/brands of potato flakes out there that do not meet our guidelines, this is one of the best….

Thank you, Jeff! Those Bob's Red Mill Flakes are the exact ones I used. So nice to have a healthy option rather than standard potato flakes with the oils + preservatives.
