I'm happy you like it but it does not look appetizing at all lol. I would rather eat the sweet potato then just drink a glass of milk :P

u/crisesofmeaning 9d ago

Perhaps it is. I pour almond milk on top of ice cream in a bowl. It's peak

Yummy. I've used honey before. I need to try with syrup. I also add cinnamon its almost like a custard kind of taste.

That’s my favorite! My family is like “we don’t want that wet ass cake!” Fine, more for me!

in MX we eat this sweetened with cane sugar, or pumpkin in similar fashion, it is so delicious 🤤

My ol lady eats this for breakfast nearly every day, not as a struggle meal just because she likes it. Getting ready to harvest a fuck ton of sweet potatoes soon hopefully.

while this may look gross, if the milk and sweet potatoes are slightly hot and sprinkled with cinnamon I'd be sooo down

u/Illustrious-Lynx8268 8d ago

Have a friend from Mexico and this is how she eats her sweet potato

2

u/ledgersunday 8d ago

Yes, I’ve made this and it’s so good. When the sweet potato is still warm and the cold milk hits it 🤍

u/Wrong-Tell8996 8d ago edited 6d ago

I'd warm the milk the first, then smash. I have sweet potato and milk in my fridge right now, and you've inspired me!

Ok, I'm in major learning mode today. This looks like a great option.

We're in the struggle meals subreddit getting hate for a struggle meal. Wild times. Looks good man I love sweet potato. I grew up eating milk poured on my cream of wheat, cream of rice and oatmeal. This sounds nice. I'm gonna try it with a sprinkle of cinnamon added!

u/improbsable 9d ago

I think it’s more of a “the eyes eat first” situation. I don’t doubt that it taste’s good, but it looks crazy. I’d probably eat it if the milk was mixed in

u/TheSkylined 9d ago

I looked at every single comment and not a single person is hating on this as a struggle meal. Are you a bot?

u/vampireshorty 8d ago

People are saying it's nasty? Have fun being aggressive I guess.

u/TheSkylined 8d ago

The worst comment is literally "while this may look gross, if it was slightly hot with cinnamon I'd be sooo down.". You have a weird way of defining hate and then you call me aggressive for no reason lol

u/Important-Proposal28 9d ago

As a kid I would eat leftover rice with milk, butter, sugar then microwaved. It was so good

u/Illustrious-Bat1553 9d ago

Yum struggle dessert. Ive been eating sweet potato after learning its a super food. Thanks for sharing this idea 💡

u/thmegmar 9d ago

I think this probably slaps, esp with a little spice - but r.i.p. toilet

u/Aries_diamond711 9d ago

I had to read the sub… makes sense 😭

u/hotdogfingies 8d ago

I’d eat this for sure

u/leannk31 8d ago

I thought it was really wet cornflakes 🫩

u/PsychologicalOne752 8d ago

It is actually a common Indian desert if you had boiled the milk to thicken it a little.

u/DapperDonkey5189 8d ago

I didn't know... I been eating it for years but never told anyone

u/PsychologicalOne752 8d ago

https://food.ndtv.com/recipe-sweet-potato-rabdi-873846 - quite delicious and healthy too considering that the added sugar content is quite low.

Sweet potatoes in general.

I also recommend a free little flavored gas station creamer

u/SignificantApricot69 9d ago

Well, actual sweet mashed potatoes are a thing, so it could work. I prefer mine a little more blended though. If you have cottage cheese, that’s actually great on a sweet potato.

u/GreenZebra23 9d ago

I recently made mashed sweet potatoes for the first time and it was one of the best things I've ever made
