Potatoes get plenty of recognition and always have.

A nice, cold, peeled potato with salt and pepper on it is a suprisingly refreshing snack

[-] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I feel like we could have done better than 'baked potato' for a fancy dinner. Come on.

Or Hasselhoff. Yes, I know it’s “hasselback” but I refuse to change.

It's just that many supposedly "fine dining" establishments phone it in with baked because they're easy and customers accept it.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Like a TWICE baked potato.

God bless the people of the Andean Plateau, who looked at a moderately poisonous tuber that can freaking kill you, and said, "Eh, it's fine, just don't eat too many of 'em."

A few thousand years of selective breeding and hard work later, we have one of the most important crops in the world.

Yep hunger does some wild things to people

This is stupid. It gets plenty of recognition. Everyone loves potatoes. Makes alcohol too.

Baked potatoes fancy? I love a baked potato with beans and cheese, but it's hardly fancy.

Fondant potatoes are what you want for fancy (and delicious).

The classic Irishman's dilemma: do I eat this potatoe today, or ferment it so I can drink it tomorrow?

The fact that we eat them on every occasion is recognition.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

My man, wait until you hear about this thing called rice.
