    If any East Coast lemmings want to try them and report back, I’d be interested to hear

    The Poulette is available now through March at Whole Foods stores in New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey for $6 per bag. Not in one of those states? Row 7 has plenty more coming.

    Reminds me of Sugarhill Gang:

    Have you ever went over a friend's house to eat And the food just ain't no good? I mean the macaroni's soggy, the peas are mushed And the potato tastes like chicken

    My father devoted all his working life to growing potatoes here in rural Bogota, Colombia, so for me it's a bit nice seeing people all over the world loving and eating potatoes. Still kinda wish people appreciated and respected more what mother nature gives to us

    From the reviews I wouldn't expect it to taste like chicken.
