    I feel like we could have done better than 'baked potato' for a fancy dinner. Come on.

      The two preparations are quite similar aren't they?

      Firstly, how dare you! Uncultured swine.

      Secondly, yes. They're very similar indeed.

        Why is mash a holiday food? They're just mechanically pre-digested boiled potatoes.

            Unpopular opinion: not even that, really. The baked potato is by far the most overrated potato.

            It's not very good by the standards of food in general. Which of course makes it quite bad by the lofty standards of potatoes.

                  Same with Denmark and afaik the rest of Scandinavia.

                  Set in their ways old (70+) Danish people tend to refuse to eat anything for dinner that doesn't involve potatoes with a thick gravy and some kind of meat, preferably pork πŸ˜„

                      Probably because OP makes things extra yummy on holidays and boiled potatoes are made approximately 700% yummier by being "mechanically pre-digested" as you call it.

                      That's just how the science of potato magic works 🀷

                                  The initial outrage followed by tenuous agreement was very potato.

                                        Baked potatoes are what you get from a food truck.

                                        Are people meaning roast potatoes?

                                        Both of those look delicious.

                                        Person in OP is probably from the US. Many restaurants when you order a steak, you also get a potato that’s been in the oven and cut into half way, with a bit of butter or sour cream placed inside of its open potato slit.
