Are Golden Corral's Adored Mashed Potatoes Instant Or The Real Deal?
By Jessica Fleming-Montoya
While some restaurants may take the easy route and make their mashed potatoes from instant potato flakes, Golden Corral isn't one of them.
Instead, this company does the hard work of peeling, cooking, and mashing its potatoes in-house. The chain even claims to peel over a million potatoes a week.
Golden Corral hasn't released its official recipe for mashed potatoes but claims its secret is pairing its hand-peeled potatoes with whole buttermilk and white pepper.
Golden Corral's mashed potatoes pack about 200 calories for every ½ cup, but this amount can vary based on whether you're eating regular, garlic, or garlic and cheddar varieties.
It's important to know that Golden Corral's mashed potatoes contain soy, which is an allergen. If soy isn't a hindrance, you will be in for a delicious dish made from scratch.
