Do you ever take a moment to pause from the ebb and flow of life to appreciate the good old potato?  Me neither.  But I think it’s time we do.

Potatoes have been wrongfully overlooked for centuries.  Looking back at our ancestors (except the Irish, of course), the potato has been an unfaltering and reliable source of income and sustenance.  Though botanically classified as a vegetable, potatoes serve as a versatile crop that can be savored at any time of day by any kind of person.  Even vegans can enjoy them.
