CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

That's right everyone, the year 2008 is designated by the United Nations (regardless of how one may feel about them) as the International Year of the Potato due to it's importance as one of the four big staple crops of the world, and it's importance to multiple national cultures.

So, in honoring this humble tuber, what is your favorite way of having a potato? Or what potato facts do you know?

I have a potato fact:

In 2007, 3 varieties of potato have been deemed as having a high dry matter contect, making them perfect for a sturdily constructed french fry.

Potatoes are awesome. You can make batteries with them.

But the best potatoes are served hassleback style.

Hassleback style? Explain this concept to me...as I need to know more of this potato.

I love ranch seasoned potatoes 8D

Doesn't capture the crispy golden brown-ity of it, but you get the picture.

Mashed Potatoes, Au Grautin and Scalloped are tasty.

Talking about Potato, just gotta, "Pika! Pika!"
Pulled that out of thin "Air" for you anime fans.

Isn't it really weird of all the different ways to serve a potato? I really could careless form a potato is in, I'd still eat it anyway. Scalloped, fries, mashed, baked, and others.


Mashed potatoes go great on Shephard's pie. Has anyone else had it, it's really good.

United Nations: saving one potato at a time.

GO!

I love fried potatoes (French Fries)

Baked potatoes! with sour cream and cheese! ^^ yuuum!

My mom makes great "Hassleback style" potatoes. We call them "cholesterol potatoes" because of all the butter and whatnot that goes on them. And my gran makes the best fried potatoes ever! Potatoes are great anyway you prepare them.

Potato pancakes.

Po-Ta-To......Chips.....Like Samwise says, boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew.......

Fiddles, I even forgot Tatter Tots & the cool triangle hashbrown thingys at McDonald's.

It should probably be concerning that this image has been apropos so often on CAA. Seriously, I've posted it more than anything else.

Lol, I can honestly say I've never seen that picture before, UC XDD

I.. heard that saying before, Danderson >_>

XDDD

Anyway, fried potatoes are good too. Like a flambe type thing ^__^

thread over.

I think I'm the only one on the planet that doesn't really like potatoes all that much. French fries are okay once in a while and I like to have mashed potatoes every so often, but other than that, meh.

Sweet potatoes are way better than regular potatoes. 8D

I also love mashed potatoes as well ^__^ Haven't had any in a loooooooooooong time though 8(

hmm... I like potatoes. My favourite kinds are: mashed potatoes and potato hash. XD
Those terribly bad for you but SOOO good homemade french fries are best as well.
I think we should make Mr. Potato Head the year's mascot!!!

I like potatoes anyway you can make them...I just have to stay away from the fried stuff (though Whataburger french fries are amazing!)

So, when you guys eat a baked potato do you eat the skin too? I do --it's very nutritious, actually.

By the way, thanks for helping me decide what I'm having for dinner tonight. Boxed Potatoes Stroganoff it is.

Potato fact: A potato is a thickened stem that grows underground.

Apparently a fast way to grow a bonsai tree is to use a potato, and let it sit so those white things grow on it. Then you can trim it and treat it like a bonsai tree..

No idea who thought of that.

Haha, couch potato XDD



Ooh, bonsai potato ^__^

I actually like the skin on them Ooh, I loved those potato skin chips ^^ I miss those ^^

I like pretty much anything with potatoes. They taste good!

Fact: Potatoes and Tomatoes are not the same.

BTW Let's not for get Mr. Potato Head.

At one of the Chinese restaurants I love to get is seasoned potatoes ^_________^

Yah, you all heard me XDD
