Yes. The potato will taste much better if you make this bag. Sure oven
mitts or christmas socks or small pillows would work exactly the same,
but why use something that you already have when you can spend your
entire fun-filled afternoon first going to a shop to buy the materials
and then making the bag and then baking your potato? Too lazy? Your
baked potato will taste so much better after you spend 6 hours on
preparing it, because you will feel very hungry by then. As Socrates
is rumored to have said, hunger is the best sauce.
