What You Should Know

Simply Potatoes Diced, With Onion is a refrigerated 20-ounce pack of pre-diced potatoes aimed at shoppers who want a fast, home-style side without peeling and chopping. You’ll typically find it in the chilled prepared produce or refrigerated sides aisle, alongside shredded hash brown bags, fresh-cut vegetables, and other ready-to-cook potato products. It reads like a pantry shortcut for breakfasts, weeknight dinners, and quick holiday sides — think weekend brunch skillets, game-day potato trays, or a simple roasted accompaniment for a midweek meal. The brand positions itself around simplicity and trust: “fresh, never frozen potatoes” and “real ingredients” speak to a family-friendly, value-conscious demographic that prizes convenience but wants to avoid obviously synthetic-sounding formulations. Label cues include a “gluten free” flag and natural-sounding claims (“real,” “fresh”), creating a health-halo without organic or non-GMO certification. In plain processing terms, the product is prepared and preserved so it’s ready to cook, and small amounts of anti-browning and preservative agents are used to maintain color and freshness. Sensory expectations: raw pieces feel firm and starchy; when sautéed they brown and crisp at the edges with a tender interior and a mild onion background note. Packaging is a clear refrigerated plastic pack that tears or reseals, designed for quick pan-frying or oven-roasting; the ritual is convenience cooking — open, toss into a skillet, and finish in minutes. Culturally it sits between homemade comfort and modern convenience, offering a shortcut for people who want familiar potato dishes with minimal prep.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Although the base is a single whole food (potatoes), the inclusion of added sugars (dextrose), anti-browning agents and chemical preservatives places it among ultra-processed products in NOVA due to industrial additives and formulation beyond simple culinary ingredients.
