The manufacturing code represents the date the product was made. The first four digits indicate the date the product was made. The remaining digits, after the first four, are for internal purposes only.The first number represents the year it was made. For instance, a 5 would indicate the product was made in 2005.
The next three numbers represent the day of the year the product was made. For example, if the numbers were 365, this would indicate the product was made on December 31st (the 365th day in the year).
NOTE: If a more golden brown color is desired, bake 5 additional minutes. Double batch: Bake at 400 degrees 35 – 40 min. or until tender.
The main reason any food product is packaged is preservation of the product. Packaging allows us as consumers to enjoy wholesome, high quality, safe foods that are storable.By dehydrating the potato and packaging them, consumers are able to enjoy potato products year round, and in areas where they are not grown or readily accessible. All of Idahoan potato products are simple to prepare. No cleaning, peeling, slicing or mashing is required.
Idahoan uses only 100% Idaho potatoes combined with excellent processing and packaging equipment and capabilities. This allows Idahoan to produce consistent, high quality products. Idahoan adheres to all USDA and FDA guidelines concerning production and ingredients.
A potato is a living, breathing organism, even after harvesting. After harvesting, the potato slowly begins to degrade. By processing and packaging the potatoes, Idahoan is able to virtually stop the degradation process and supply consumers with a healthy, sound product. There are heat labile vitamins that are partially destroyed during processing but raw potatoes also lose some of their nutrients as they age.
