    this is where you recognize that exercise burns calories and makes the body turn the excess calories into muscle and better fat, rather than flab.

    And then you can ascend to the glory of being happy about eating 5kg of potatoes, because it means you can do a whole lot of exercise, which will make you swole

    One of the most versatile vegetables and a staple. I always have fresh potatoes on hand.

    Cooking potatoes, then cooling them in the refrigerator for 24 hours converts some of the starches into resistant starches which are good for gut bugs, and don't get made into sugars to raise one's blood glucose.

    I thought the right picture was garlic confit at first which I'm currently making. Was going to put in on ciabatta but now I'm thinking of doing something like potato skins but with provolone.

    Penn Jilette, one of the magicians from the "Penn & Teller" duo, lost 100 libra pondo's from eating nothing but potatoes. If you prepare potatoes correctly you can create resistent starch as well which is better for your blood sugar, so it really is a versatile vegetable. It has lots of potassium too.

    When I was a kid and we’d come back to the states, during sporting events one side of the family would jokingly lean into an Irish caricature about potatoes (a reason they/we came to the US a few generations prior) so in that spirit…

    Not ME potatoes! They’ll cheer you up! /hands you a bottle of Luksusowa and jig-dances away singing “mash ‘em boil ‘em put ‘em in a stew…” /

    Potatoes get a bad name, but they are full of potassium, vitamin C, and fibre.

    Don't eat potatoes... drink them. In the slav way.
