    Someone at work offered me the hashbrown from their combo breakfast the other day, I ate it because I couldn’t stand seeing 4 dollars worth of fried taters thrown out. Have they always been so oily? shrug-outta-hecks

      I just bought a pack of frozen hash browns from the grocery store and it was $4 for 10 of them. much better than mcdonalds ones and not greasy

      granted I had to endure the laborious task of heating them up for 15 whole minutes in the air fryer

        the frozen hashbrowns you get at kroger and walmart are, as far as i’ve heard, exactly the same supplier mcdonald’s uses. so yeah. i buy those myself and put them in the air fryer. i would say it’s on par with the mcdonald’s hashbrowns (and better due to less oil like you said) tho i do consider mcd’s hashbrowns to be nummy but not worth what they’re asking.
