How many pounds of potato salad for 25 people?

Answer 1

As a guide allow 4 ounces of potato salad per person.

4oz x 25 equals 100oz, that's 6.25 pounds of potato salad.

Some folk may take a little more, some folk won't take any as they might not like potato salad.

Therefore 6.25 pounds should be enough for 25 people.

Answer 2

Four ounces is considered the normal serving. 6 pounds should provide a nice serving for 25 people. That may be a bit light.

Answer 3

You would only need 2 pounds to feed 8 people. If they are hungry you may want to double that! The normal serving is considered to be 4 ounces.

Answer 4

About half a cup per person. A cup is around 1/4 of a pound, so that's 25/8 = 3.125 pounds.

Answer 5

Four ounces is considered the normal serving. 3 pounds should provide a nice serving for 12 people. If they are hungry you may want to go more than that!

Answer 6

The normal serving is considered to be 4 ounces. You would need about 6 pounds to feed 24 people. If there are other salad choices you will need less.
