Ironman verdict

Potato with cheese is a members item. Other players trade it, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade, so you get your own. We list 2 monsters, 1 shop and 1 recipe for it.

The easiest way is to buy it from Warrior Guild Food Shop in Warriors' Guild, at 9 coins each. You can also make it with 47 Cooking from Potato with butter and Cheese. Each one made gives 40 Cooking XP. If you would rather kill for it, the lowest-level monster that drops it is Crazy archaeologist (level 204), at 8/128, about one in 16 kills. That monster also has the best drop rate we list. The 2 monsters we list with a combat level range from level 204 to 276.

Materials you can buy or make: Potato with butter, made with 39 Cooking; Cheese, sold at Food Store for 4 coins.

Bosses we cover that drop it: Crazy Archaeologist and Deranged Archaeologist. The shop that stocks it is in Warriors' Guild.

No recipe in our data uses it as a material. High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 4 coins. Each cast uses a nature rune, 180 coins from a rune shop, and five fire runes that a fire staff replaces, so an alch loses about 176 coins; only alch it to clear space.
