On the road to 1 million meals
Ready to Eat. No cooking needed.
Delicious smashed potatoes lightly seasoned with a hint of rosemary. Heating optional.
- No boiling water, no milk, no butter, no stove.
- All-or-nothing on Kickstarter: you're only charged if we fund.
This letter confirms that Feeding the Northwest will gladly receive and accept donated Teton Tater Smashed Potatoes.
Potatoes, not paste.
Instant potatoes are quick, until you're boiling water, measuring milk and finding the butter. Ours are already done.
| Feature | Instant flakes & pouches | Teton Tater |
|---|---|---|
| To make it | Boil water, add milk and butter, stir, wait | Open it. Heat it if you like. |
| What's inside | Dehydrated flakes you rebuild yourself | Real potatoes, already smashed and seasoned |
| Kitchen needed | Stove or kettle, pot, bowl | A spoon |
| Package | Pouches, boxes or cans | A carton: no dents, no can opener |
| Fridge | No (but you need milk) | No |
For nights you don't have it in you.
Dinner needs a side
Something real on the plate without one more pot to wash.
Storm in the pantry
No fridge, no stove, no problem. It waits on the shelf until you need it.
No fire required
Pack it, open it, done. A real side dish without boiling water.
The go-bag shelf
Real food for the emergency kit, not another bag of flakes.
Comfort food that feeds two households.
Food you'd want to eat yourself. That's the one we send.
You back your potatoes
Pledge on Kickstarter for a box or a case, for your pantry.
We make two
Same potatoes, same carton, same production run.
We send the match
We send the matched carton to Feeding The Northwest food banks in Washington, Oregon and Idaho.
No can opener. No stove. Built for the food bank shelf, because not everyone who visits a pantry has a kitchen.
Neighbors feeding neighbors. Pull up a chair.
Join the list. On launch day, your first case stocks your pantry, and we stock a food bank shelf with the same cartons.
The honest answers.
Do I have to heat it?
Is the donated carton the same as mine?
Is the donation real?
