Potatoes are really good. I like to slather a big russett in oil and sea salt and bake it for like 2 hours, then I put all kinds of good stuff like butter and sour cream and chives and bacon and salt and pepper in it and eat it up :yum:

funny , talk of food turns instantly to poverty levels.

Potato not as a vegetable but as some fast food or junk food.

Fingerling potatoes plate really well with fancy meals, but I've just never been a fan of their texture.

Good ol' russet potatoes are and will always be the gold standard for potatoes. I mean, you can't make mashed potatoes with red/new potatoes or fingerlings, so that kinda disqualifies them automatically.

Yes, fingerling, they were usually purple skinned twisted up long things. God, fresh from the ground they were awesome.

God, everything there was, in amazing soil, small new potatoes straight from the ground to a pot. cabbages as big as your head and plum trees you ate off until you were sick as hell. Milk with cream in glass bottles. A world that probably will never exist again.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Boiled or baked potatoes are best

grow a loving home and make real food.

Stick to the outside of your grocery store, its where actual food is, fruit veg, unprepared meat.

The more you move inward into the isles the worse it gets.

Fries dipped into a thickshake is a very yes.

Whatever youre showing is a no.

Those fries look like poo poo

Salty rear end fries are essential for dipping.

When no one was looking, Serval took forty Japari buns. She took 40 buns. That's as many as four tens. And that's terrible.
Roosters are the best kind of potatoes.
New potatoes are good too.

SMH so few people seem to be able to enjoy a non processed, non fried potato these days.

Mash'em with some butter. :bisonyes:

Ive only had Wendys once years ago and all I remember was the meat was a square.

Thickshake dipping chips need to be salty as hell to make the sweet salty thing happen with a gross chocolate or vanilla coagulation of poo poo called a shake work.
