Potatoes are in fact cooked to a point and then mashed.

They are then molded to all be the same shape and size.

By pressure force they are put together again.

Then quick frozen and packed.

During the initial cooking process some preservatives are added which allows them to be frozen.

If you should freeze cooked potato, it will come out bland and soggy when defrosted, but this process preserves them but the additives are no healthy.

Those potato chips no longer contain potassium, which is the main benefit potatoes have for us.

They are simply "just starch" which makes them unhealthy and fattening.
