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 would assume for increased shelf life. This is German style potato salad and I have seen the cans in stores for at least 30 years.
That’s one hell of a shelf life…
There cans over 100 years old with still safe-to-eat food in them.
