Yes. (Frozen dinners often have mashed potatoes in them.) I usually add more liquid to mashed potatoes before I freeze them so they don't get too dry when reheating. Or, you can add a bit more liquid, if needed, when you reheat them.

If you whip them well ,then will freeze very well.But doing it with a hand masher;they don'tcome out well when unthawed.Get them nice and light ,and add just enough liquidto bind them .To much liquid and they'll be heavy ,and don't freeze as well.

How long does it take for potatoes to rot and why?

If stored in a cool dry place (not in the refrigerator, but in a wire container) at about 45 to 50 degrees and away from onions you should expect them to last for about 4-6 months. The main reason potatoes rot so quickly is do to improper storage. Many people leave the potatoes in the bag they purchased them in, store them in the refrigerator (which affects the cell structure), store them with onions (they will produce gases that will promote decomposition) or leave them were light and warm temperatures will cause your potatoes to sprout. Damaged potatoes should be stored separately and used first because they will cause the other potatoes to rot.

Are green potato chips poisonous?

Technically, yes, but you’d have to eat such a large amount of them that it’s not worth worrying about.

First, let’s understand why parts of potatoes turn green. Potatoes, for the most part, are grown underground, but occasionally, a small part might be exposed to sunlight. Those exposed parts turn green as chlorophyll begins to form. Although most of these colorful outliers don’t make it onto the grocery store shelves, the occasional green potato might go overlooked, and this is why you might see a slice in one of your snack bags.

In terms of safety, chlorophyll is both tasteless and nontoxic. However, as a potato turns green, conditions are right for it to synthesize a glycoalkaloid poison called solanine, which potatoes produce to defend against insects and predators. Ingesting large amounts of solanine can cause vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, headaches, and a slew of other unpleasant symptoms—including death. The good news is that those toxic levels would equate to eating several pounds of green potatoes.

Long story short, the moderate solanine formation in one or two errant potato chips is not enough to do any harm.
