But it is the potato journey not the potato destination that matters.

Kind of like - everything you eat turns to shit ...

Let me recommend you try Purple Potatoes. They are delicious and full of anti-oxidents.

Indeed. Some are fried mashed, some scalloped mashed, and others baked mashed. My favorite being loaded mashed. Man I love potatoes. Is it my Irish blood?

You make me proud I am following you! Lol!

I remember my seventh grade geography teacher telling us that "...people had become so lazy..." and related how she and husband had another couple over for dinner the night before. She went on to say that she served them boiled potatoes and they chided her that she had not mashed them. She defended herself by taking the posistion that they were just too lazy to mash them with their forks on their plates themselves. Even at that tender age I recognized that she lacked culunary sense in that mashed potatoes are not just a potato that has been squashed, it is a puree of butter, salt, and milk (whole milk or cream) and whose consistency is completly different than the result of squashing a boiled potato on one's plate. In short, she was likely one of those whose taste buds are not precise enough to enable her to tell the difference. To her, food was merely feed.

R/showerthoughts ????

I recall that unless they are cooked they are indigestible so they come out the other end as they went in - same as whole peanuts don't digest.

That IS deep !!…… Is this a new western philosophy in the making?? Tell us more !!! How about french fries? Or potato chips... Oh so many damn options, my head already spinning...it hurts ... Please make it stop !!!!!!!! ???????? (Good one dude)

All food is poo in the end, should we just eat poo?

Masticated at least.
