Re: Bob Evans: Not interested in peeling, boiling and mashing potatoes, I recently bought a package of Bob Evans refrigerated mashed potatoes at my supermarket. I haven't used them yet, so your column made me go to my fridge to confirm they're still there. Yep -- but with a use-by date of Dec. 01, 2024. Oops. Guess I'll never know the thrill of Bob Evans. Whoever he was.

Assume you mean the producer of pork sausage, not "Rosemary's Baby?" By the way, if you read the very fine print on that mashed potato package, you'll find that although a random and irrelevant "use-by date" may have passed, the product can still be used in place of mortar to repoint a brick wall.

Thanks! I almost threw it away!
