Why are potatoes so damn good?!?!?!
I like them in every way: mashed potatoes, hash browns, tater tots, curly fries, steak fries…baked potatoes? Why not!
Why are they so good? Why can’t I resist them when they are on the table in front of me or on the menu?
Eh, who cares right? They're damn good!
I'm thinking of french fries right now because today is Wednesday, aka Quiz night at Ye Olde King's Head. And most likely, I won't order fries (trying to cut down on fried foods) but will eventually skim some off someone who does...
Probably my 2nd favorite potato dish would be mashed potatoes. I liked Trader Joe’s vegetarian Shephard’s Pie, but can’t seem to find it anymore!
I used to make it from the box, Barbara’s to be exact. But, suddenly, store after store stopped carrying them.
What’s happening to my instant delights?
Mashed potatoes and gravy (vegan herb) is my favorite. I toss in some brussel sprouts on the side, so I don’t feel guilty. But usually, I find myself eating the greens as quickly as possible, so I can hurry over to the main dish.
P.S. Why do the English call American French fries “chips” and American potato chips “crisps?”
This peculiarity has always boggled me!
