no issues with these potatoes. easy to wash, tasty and versatile as all potatoes are. better value than the washed potatoes and only requires a little more effort to prepare. this is a great value option due to the sheer quantity of potato that is within

I bought the 2kg Brushed Potatoes from Woolworths and they were really good quality. The potatoes were fresh, firm and perfect for roasting and curries. They cook evenly and have a nice fluffy texture inside. Great value for the price and always handy to have at home!

tried these potato’s for dinner tonight as I made chips. good potatoes and they were soft in the middle with a crispy outer. didn’t fall apart or stay hard. they are very very dirty though and took a lot of washing

✅ Positive (Good things) 1. Fresh and natural Brushed potatoes come with skin and a bit of soil, which keeps them fresh longer. 2. Long shelf life They usually stay good for many days if kept in a cool, dark place. 3. Very versatile Perfect for many dishes — mash, chips, curry, roast, baking, boiling. 4. More flavour Brushed potatoes often taste stronger and more earthy than washed potatoes. 5. Usually cheaper They are often better value compared to washed or pre-peeled potatoes. ⸻ ❌ Negative (Bad things) 1. Need extra cleaning Because they come with soil, you must wash and scrub them before cooking. 2. Size not always same Sometimes the bag has mixed sizes, making cooking time uneven. 3. Can sprout faster in warm homes If stored incorrectly (warm or bright place), they sprout or turn green. 4. Heavy bag The 4kg or 5kg bags can be heavy and hard to carry for some people. 5. Soil mess Can make a little mess in the kitchen or pantry if the bag leaks dirt

Woolworth brushed potatoes - good value for money compared to washed potatoes, especially when potatoes are so damn expensive at this season at time of review, 3.75 AUD per kg. When buying a bag, you can't check each potato, so risk of bad ones being hidden but good in terms of cost to other bag potatoes or open ones.
