Groan. Love the masher.#2: annalivia (annalivia) on Dec 25, 2018 [SPOILER]
Wouldn't blindfolds work just as well? They don't need earplugs to blunt the sound of the masher's descent, since taters don't have ears. Though the air pressure change might alert them.#3: Jota (jota) on Dec 25, 2018

Corn has ears. The sound of corn getting creamed must be horrendous.#5: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Dec 25, 2018
Or imagine the sound of corn being ripped from the cob. Tragic.#6: Velma Warren (Shiro) on Dec 25, 2018

Why do cooks cut the eyes out of potatoes? Because they don't like the way they look.#10: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Dec 27, 2018
When you throw a potato, how can you tell how fast it is going?#11: jewel crown (Jewel) on Dec 28, 2018
Use a spudometer.
Excellent image!#12: jewel crown (Jewel) on Dec 28, 2018

Why do cooks cut the eyes out of potatoes? Maybe to "ex-spud-eye"-te the cooking process...? Or perhaps because the eyes aren't a-peeling...?...or they know that eyes (ice lol) in the cooking water won't allow it to boil.#14: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Dec 30, 2018
