There's a huge taste difference between fresh dug and storage spuds at
market... fresh dug taste very earhy like mushroom, stupidmarket spuds
are all storage, all you taste is starchy TIAD. My next door neighbor
grows potatoes, onions, and garlic, excellent. We grow different
crops so we swap. And now my feral cats are patroling his garden too.
They're big steak eaters so my ferals are doing well... every time
they light their grill my ferals head over there.
