Funeral potatoes (also known as Mormon funeral potatoes or party potatoes is a traditional potato hotdish or casserole that originated in the Intermountain West region of the United States. Both Mormon and Southern people call this dish "funeral potatoes" because the casserole is commonly served as a side dish during traditional after-funeral dinners, such as those planned by members of the Relief Society (a LDS auxiliary organization). The dish is also served at other social gatherings such as potlucks, typically in areas with a significant Latter-day Saint population in the Mormon Corridor.The next time Mormons ring your doorbell just ask them to bring some over for you along with a free copy of the Mormon Bible.
The dish usually consists of hash browns or cubed potatoes, cheese (cheddar or Parmesan), onions, cream soup (chicken, mushroom, or celery) or a cream sauce, sour cream, and a topping of butter with corn flakes or crushed potato chips. Ingredients in some variations include cubed baked ham, frozen peas, or broccoli florets.

This is white people food. You can't just go putting spices in it and shit.
Have you been to Salt Lake? Have you seen Mormon families? Marshmallow squares and Jell-O is about as risqué as they get.
