Tater tots have been a beloved snack from my middle-school cafeteria days to late-night college study sessions. To find the best and easiest frozen tater tots, I reviewed six grocery-store brands: Sonic, Signature Select, Ore-Ida, Alexia Foods, McCain, and Cascadian Farm. Following each package's cooking instructions, I ranked them based on flavor and texture. The results revealed that while the Sonic and Ore-Ida varieties were a bit too plain for my taste, Alexia Foods' crispy seasoned potato puffs stood out as the clear winner, thanks to their delightful garlic and pepper flavor that truly enhanced the classic tater tot experience.
