Spud Nation Throwdown Cook-off, Edition 2018

The Spud Nation Throwdown Cook-off is back in 2018 with a new twist: 100% impartiality.

In its third annual year, test kitchen culinarians from the biggest brands who market potatoes or use potatoes in their ingredients will don their chef hats and head to the stage where they will prepare their most innovative dishes.

Hosted by Phil Lempert, the SupermarketGuru, the Spud Nation Throwdown judging panel will taste each chef's creation blindfolded to offer their objective reviews.

The Throwdown takes place over two days with two finalists competing one-on-one to turn mystery ingredients left for them on the stage into a Spud Nation winning dish.
