Product Insights
The product is a butter‑flavored instant mashed potato mix by Idahoan, packaged in 1.36 kg plastic sachets and sold primarily in Mexico and the United States. It belongs to the "Cereals and potatoes" group, carries a NOVA 4 ultra‑processed classification, and provides 110 kcal per 28 g serving with 2 g protein, 20 g carbohydrates, 2.5 g fat, 1.5 g saturated fat and 1.125 g salt, while also containing added sugars and several additives such as sodium bisulfite and mixed tocopherols. The blend is gluten‑free but includes dairy allergens (milk, butter, buttermilk) and soy, and its high sodium and added‑sugar levels exceed typical category averages, which may be a concern for salt‑sensitive or diabetic consumers.
