For my family, mashed potatoes are more than just a side dish – they’re a cherished staple that brings everyone together. And while I’ve tried to introduce healthier options, nothing quite compares to the comfort and satisfaction of creamy mashed potatoes. That is until I stumbled upon a TikTok tip that completely transformed this classic dish.
User Jourdyn, known as @jeauxp on TikTok, shared a brilliant twist on traditional mashed potatoes – using chicken stock. Intrigued by this unconventional idea, I decided to give it a try and see if it could live up to the hype.
To my surprise and delight, the results were absolutely phenomenal. The chicken stock infused the potatoes with a subtle umami flavor, taking their taste to a whole new level. And here’s the best part – leaving the skins on while boiling added a rustic texture that was simply irresistible.
Encouraged by this newfound culinary revelation, I continued to experiment. One of my favorite variations was adding sour cream and chives to the mashed potatoes. The combination of flavors was out of this world, and the presentation impressed everyone at the table.
But my TikTok culinary journey didn’t stop there. I discovered more incredible tricks along the way. For example, I learned that adding a pinch of nutmeg to spinach can bring a whole new dimension of flavor. And who would have thought that a simple piece of bread could soften hardened brown sugar?
Let me tell you, these unconventional hacks have not only expanded my cooking repertoire but also added a touch of creativity to my meals. It’s amazing how a small twist or unexpected ingredient can completely transform a dish.So, if you’re feeling adventurous, why not consider these unconventional twists the next time you make mashed potatoes?

My husband chose his mistress over me and our kids, so I taught him a lesson
Exposing your personal life on the social media for the sake of sharing a life lesson might be a difficult decision to make, but TikTok user @tattylomas did exactly that and spoke of how she handled her husband’s infidelity and how she reacted witnessing him ruining their marriage and their family and later regretting it.
She started her story explaining that she and her now ex-husband were high-school sweethearts. She knew he was the one the moment she laid eyes on him years ago. The two proceeded to marry and welcome three children together. But one day out of the blue he told her that there was someone else in his life and that he wanted a divorce.
The TikToker felt like her entire world collapsed. She couldn’t understand how he could wrack their family for a woman he only knew for three months. But he was determined to start his life over claiming he was in love with her and deserved to be happy.
She did all in her power to prevent him from leaving her and the children, but to no avail.
It was then that she decided to put her brave face on and be strong for her kids.
They proceeded with the divorce and she got to keep the house which meant the world to her because they bought it from her grandmother, but ended paying him a hefty payout.
Once everything was over, the TikToker could finally get over her heartbreak. But then, she got a text from her ex telling her he was sorry and he wanted to get back to her. For this woman, that wasn’t an option. After everything he did, she couldn’t possibly take him back, not ever.
In fact, she learned that the woman her husband left her for was a horrible person who crashed his car while driving drunk.
Some time later, the TikToker met someone knew through her sister who was also divorced. She and this new man didn’t plan on getting married, but they got involved in a meaningful relationship.
The woman continued to express how delighted she was to watch her ex-husband suffer the consequences of his actions. “Call me evil or whatever, but he brought all of this on himself,” she added.
At the end of the video, she addressed her husband directly, saying, “So if you are watching this, enjoy your shabby one-bedroom apartment and her broken-down car. Oh, and my new partner and I will think of you on our vacation in Hawaii. I know Hawaii was the place you always wanted to go. Maybe I will send you a postcard.”
“SERVES HIM RIGHT!!!” someone commented. “YES GURL U GOOOO,”another added.
One viewer suggested, “GIRL SEND HIM THAT POSTCARD BUT FILL IT W PICS OF YOU AND YOUR NEW MAN.”
She said she didn’t want to indulge in any hard revenge antics because watching her ex regret his actions was enough revenge for her.
