Yesterday in Kroger (a supermarket for you non-Americans) I saw a bunch of cans of potato salad. Why would someone buy canned potato salad?

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.

You may laugh now, but wait till the apocalypse and see how much you miss potato salad.

You make a convincing case.

I had a massive power outage that lasted a week. Canned anything is better than nothing

After the apocalypse I’m making potato salad from scratch no problem.
