T O the brave gladiators of the Mashed Potato Wrestling Federation, it does not matter whether the potatoes are peeled beforehand or if the cooking water is correctly salted.

"You just want to make sure you don't breathe it into your lungs," said Steve Barone, a video producer in Minneapolis and the reigning champion of the sport, which takes place in a pit of squishy mashed potatoes. "That stuff is like concrete," said Mr. Barone, whose pit name is Steve-O Gratin.

Nothing cooks well in MICROWAVE

It is good only to warm up foods and

beverages. That's all.

Easy way (kinda)
Any baking potato will do, pierce with fork put in microwave for 3 min or so till kinda soft.
Cut in half and push thru strainer, and put on toppings that ya want and enjoy.

Using sweet potatoes/yams with toasted marsmallow topping and/or brown sugar is real good too.
