Re: The fastest way to eat mashed potatoes - Engineering Perspective
I think that a 4 or 5 foot long screw would be the best device for this. The safety issues could be easily avoided by adding the output tube perpendicular to the screw, and putting a momentary switch onto the screw's drive motor. There would be little to no potato loss with this, as there is only one opening. One safety issue with that would be the cleanliness of the parts that contact food, though.
