What is the purpose of the squiggly one?
Mashing potatoes
The hard way. Use the egg beaters (aka hand mixer) instead.
I don't eat potatoes, I've only made them for others at Thanksgiving so I just used a fork, but I think the people who prefer a masher say the mixer overbeats them.
It is liable to turn the potatoes into a purée and into a liquid which is absolutely terrible to serve with anything. It basically turns it into potato soup.
I remember I only made that mistake once years ago. I got lazy one day and decided to use a hand blender to mash some well cooked potatoes.... it only took ten seconds to make potato soup. Then I had to make another batch of potatoes after.
Y'all are doing it wrong. There's a happy medium and it makes the potatoes nice and fluffy.

Potato masher
Not just A potato masher, its THE potato masher. If you dont have that thick af metal wire one you have an inferior potato masher.
The opposite of true unless you're looking for chunky or over beaten potatoes. Perforated head is vastly superior to thick wire trash. https://www.seriouseats.com/best-potato-mashers-5222111
Except you cant use that one to dothe crumbly ground beef trick. They are good if you only ever use them to mash potatoes.
