Instant mashed potatoes as filler in meatloaf page 3

what's the difference between potato flour and potato flakes? they're both dehydrated and processed

Logic.

There probably isn't much difference - I guess I am just a sucker for anything that says organic, lol. I like the potato flour for the silkiness of the sauce - it is better than regular flour for texture. She may do better with potato flakes to mimic the texture of bread in a meatloaf.

Not all potato flakes are created equal either obviously...
Such as these.
Organic Instant Potato Flakes - 6 x 12 Oz: Amazon.com: Grocery & Gourmet Food
Ingredients: Organic Potatoes (mono and diglycerides from organic palm oil).

And, yes... organic potato flakes are available in my regular grocery store.

Nor had I. I'd still prefer to buy whole organic potatoes though!
