Even if you don’t want to make it, I’ve never been in a supermarket that doesn’t offer a fresher option. I’ve even been in gas stations that offer what they at least claim is fresh potato salad.
Maybe if you really, really wanted potato salad and you were in a food desert but the corner 7-11 has canned potato salad you might buy it, but I’ve never seen this before in my life.
I don’t get it.
I, for one, am not a fan of “proper” potato salad because I dislike mayo.
I’ve never had this stuff, but it sounds much more interesting to me.
Fresh German potato salad doesn’t use mayo either. And it’s fresh.
Then I guess we’re talking about at least… three(?) unrelated types of food that are called potato salad.
