Yesterday in Kroger (a supermarket for you non-Americans) I saw a bunch of cans of potato salad. Why would someone buy canned potato salad? - eviltoast

Even if you don’t want to make it, I’ve never been in a supermarket that doesn’t offer a fresher option. I’ve even been in gas stations that offer what they at least claim is fresh potato salad.

Maybe if you really, really wanted potato salad and you were in a food desert but the corner 7-11 has canned potato salad you might buy it, but I’ve never seen this before in my life.

I don’t get it.

      It’s a thing. Legend has it there are some humans who like both, but it may be propaganda from the potato-industry ;)

        I like both. Probably because I grew up with one grandma making the vinegar based type and one grandma making the mayo based type.

          I like them both too. My grandma made the vinegar verity and a friend of the family got a recipe from her grandma with mayo.
