Since I acquired a large (10 lb) bag of potatoes for about $4 last week, I have been scouring the interwebs to determine what sort of delicious things I can do with them. Here are my results so far:

Mashed potatoes - The obvious
Potato skins - Tasty way to dispose of the outsides once you mash the insides
Baked potato - Also obvious, but much quicker and thus better suited for a late-night snack
Twice baked potato - A combination of all three elements, so delicious it should be illegal
Scalloped potatoes - Cheese and potatoes is seldom bad
Potato wedges - Like baked, simple enough for snacking
Potato chips - More commonly known in North America as "french fries", but since I am neither French nor did I fry them I opted for the UK term
Potato nachos - A variant of the above, accomplished by slicing widthwise instead of lengthwise into strips and then adding sour cream, salsa...I may just go make some right now actually

So, HG, what other fascinating things can I do with potatoes? I've still got two-thirds of a bag left.

	zippdementia - October 04, 2009 (11:16 AM) I personally thought this potato post could've used a little more oomph. You're not bringing us into the actual EXPERIENCE of the potato, Will. When I read this I feel like you make some good points, but you lack focus, and therefore the post drifts off about halfway through, becoming little more than a list when it could be so much more. Your writing has really improved lately, so it's great to see that. Now if you just add in a little bit more personality, I think we would have some great posts on our hands.
	WilltheGreat - October 04, 2009 (05:42 PM) After much consideration, I think Zipp is right. There's a lot more to the potato than I've outlined here, and this post as a whole only cheapens and diminishes the vast potato experience. I'm going to rewrite this blog entry. With luck, I can craft a much better tribute to potatoes everywhere.
