I am a vegan and as a snack I occasionally find it very conventient to
grab a box of dehydrated potatoes and a cup of hot water and mix myself
a cup of mashed potatoes. I add some pantry spices to give the mixture
a kick.

While I find this snack very satisfying I sometimes wonder if by eating
these dehydrated potatoes, because of their low Glycemic Index, I might
be doing myself more harm than good.

Any ideas?
