[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago* (2 children) baked potato is just a solid lunch choice Unpopular opinion: not even that, really. The baked potato is by far the most overrated potato. It's not very good by the standards of food in general. Which of course makes it quite bad by the lofty standards of potatoes. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] khannie@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 child) Hard agree. I'd eat a lot of potatoes as an actual potato and the only one I'd generally not be arsed with is baked. Roast absolutely crushes them. Nice mash too. Chips? Easy win. Bit of gratin with a nice meal? Yes please. Potato salad for lunch? Better than baked son and you'd better believe it. Come to think of it, I honestly cannot think of a variety I'd place below baked on the yummy spud scale. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) Baked potato salad is pretty good though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] khannie@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) I have never heard of that but I'm open to the experience. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago Cheese, bacon, chives and (sometimes) sour cream in your potato salad. I’m into it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] 9point6@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago I'm curious, what toppings are you using? I unironically rate a baked potato mid-to-high tier for potato. You've gotta make sure you cook it so the inside is fluffy and the skin starts to get crispy, then I always add a bit of butter, salt & pepper before the toppings permalink fedilink source parent
