Excerpt from Processing of Frozen French Fried Potatoes and Other Frozen Potato Products The manufacture of frozen potato products has expanded rapidly in te cent years. This industry now utilizes an estimated 10 million bushels of potatoes per year and will undoubtedly become an increasingly important outlet for the potato crop (see cover). Frozen products account for about 15 percent of all potatoes processed for food, including potato chips and de hydrated and canned products. The total pack of frozen potato products in 1956 was 189. 6 million pounds, according to estimates of the National Association of Frozen Food Packers Frozen French fries comprised about 85 percent of this pack. Other frozen products include potato patties, diced potatoes, mashed or whipped potatoes, hash brown potatoes, potato puffs, baked potato, and cream of potato soup.
