Do I have to pick one? Shoestring fries, waffle fries, tater tots, home fries, steak fries, garlic mashed potatoes, potato pancakes made from leftover garlic mashed potatoes, curly fries, funeral potatoes, and Greek potatoes are all awesome. I'd also like to try to make patatas bravas sometime. I'm guessing they will also be awesome.
Wtf are funeral potatoes??? Potatoes you eat while at a funeral, or do they like grow up out of graves carrying the life essence from their roommates
They got their name because they're the kind of casserole you bring to family gatherings. They got popular because of crispy cheesy awesomeness.
traditionally to funerals. I believe it originated in Mormon culture.
Funeral potatoes are the one food I miss from Utah. The ultimate comfort food.
