This was good, but a little bland and soupy. I will make this again, but I'll add more vinegar and sugar, and less water. I also added extra salt and pepper trying to liven it up a little!

I had two cans of sliced potatoes to use up and this recipe was perfect. The family loved it. Thank you for posting.

I made this at my husband's request. His mom always made GPS and he thought the ingredients looked right. He was very happy. We both enjoyed the bacon-vinegar flavor with just a little sweet taste. We tried it both warm and cold and I prefered it warm, he liked it either way. My son got in on the action and gave it a thumbs up as well. Thanks!!
