If you are making mashed potatoes from raw potatoes, generally one potato per person. If you are using instant potatoes, then figure one cup of cooked potatoes per person.
18 potatoes You will probably need about 5lbs of any kind of potatoes...Hope i was helpful!
I would serve 4 oz portions. This will take 3 pounds potatos
15 potatoes
25 pounds of potatos shoud be about right.
LOTS AND LOTS! just kidding. if you figure about 1 potato per person approx ( so i would say 400-475 potatoes depending on the size of them. good luck.
maybe if you mash them there`s barley any difference
they are not. if you want to make mashed potatoes you don't buy potatoes called mashed potatoes, you buy baby red or something. then you mash them and then they are called mashed potatoes. as mashed ED as in past tense. i mashed the potatoes-past tense!!!!!!!!!!
NO
No, both are equally healthful. It's what you put in the mashed that will make it unhealthy or not.
That depends how you make them. Potatoes on their own should not be considered protein, but rather a starchy carbohydrate. If you make your mashed potatoes with butter, a little milk and parmesan cheese like most people, you'll have as much protein as the milk/cheese contain. It all depends how much you add.
Red potatoes are the perfect side to almost any dish. I do not usually make things, such as mash potato, from red potatoes, however roasting them with garlic and serving with a meat dish is a great way to enjoy them.
Each season had a Thanksgiving episode, but notably in season 1, Monica had to make many different kinds of potatoes to please each of her friends.

About 5 pounds of mashed poatoes are needed for twenty people. ~in my opinion, five pounds of potatoes could feed ME!!!!!!!!........ but i LOve potatoes
One pound of of white or russet potatoes makes approximately 1 3/4 cups of mashed potatoes. Using that measurement, then five pounds of potatoes would make approximately 8 3/4 cups of mashed potatoes. Source: http://southernfood.about.com/library/info/blequivp.htm
