Default Microwave baked potato?

"Thank you all for your honest opinions"

You just came to the wrong place I think. Most people on here, IMHO,
think Quality first, then Price. There is a market for what you have to
offer but it's not here. pre-Baked frozen spuds belong in same category
as "Aunt Bessie's Frozen Yorkshire Puds" that I am ashamed I have a
sister that actually uses.
