Reply to comment by captaindeadpl in Eli5 why does eating boiled potatoes make you feel full quicker than eating fries even though fried potatoes contain more fat & calories? by MrM_37

I feel like it might be the taste too, I don't think most people would as excited to eat mashed/boiled potatoes as they would be for french fries because it doesn't taste as good and perhaps the amount of salt added to the french fries make people crave for more

me too, French fries taste better with some kinds of meat, during mashed potatoes taste better with Fishsticks and other stuff.

I disagree. I think boiled tatties feel much more wholesome and appetizing than the puffed up fry.
