The last potatoes in my fridge were some nice
Yukon gold potatoes that I bought because they
looked so good. I had them at the back of
fridge for a long time, when suddenly I had
a need for something where a potato would do,
and I reached blindly behind all the stuff
in front to grab the bag with the potatoes
in them and . . . YAAAH! What's that?!?

Turned out that the potatoes had sprouted
and produced long thick roots, and I wasn't
expecting that when I grabbed them.
