I like hash browns. I do not like fried potato lumps. Waffle House or Cracker Barrel - mmmmm. At home, that green package from the refrigerated case at the grocery store does a decent job. I never bother from scratch.

The Northeastern US people will get this one: the best breakfast potato unit is that of Wawa. It's baked and not deep-fried, so admittedly not as crispy, but still very good, especially with ketchup drizzled on it.

A friend gave me a carton of these. They are dehydrated, and my hopes were not high as I tried them this morning, but man was I surprised. By far the best hashbrowns I've ever had outside of a restaurant, and better than 90% of what restaurants offer. Perfect taste and texture. Too bad they are out of stock right now from the manufacturer. I will be ordering a couple of cases asap. It's a miracle for a hashbrown junkie like me.^^^

Chick-Fil-a hash browns. Usually nice and crisp on the outside, not too soggy. We not only have ours but we always have to pick up a few boxes to go for the dogs. They now recognize the bag and go crazy when they see it.

Since Denny's uses dehydrated hashbrowns it doesn't surprise me these taste very similar
I was a graveyard cook at Denny's while putting myself through college and used to have to "prep" hashbrowns for the dayshift everyday. Prep consisted of opening the box, adding hotwater, then moving to the walk in cooler. They were fully rehydrated and ready to cook after about an hour.

Don't want potato units.. try Subway flatbread or Opa Breakfast wraps..
Otherwise, those who choose to buy breakfast at fast food establishment have to specifically request for unwanted items to be removed..
