Diary of a Mad... er, Spudman

So the executive director of the Washington State Potato Commission is halfway through a sixty day All Potato Diet to prove how healthy his favorite balnd, starchy food is.

Weep for him

Wait until he realizes that vodka is made from spuds...He does seem to be in fine spirits, though. No pun intended, for once! ;~D

Actually I've read that you can indeed live on the lowly spud provided you also drink some milk and eat a bit of meat every now and then. That said I think I'd get sick of it fast.

I've read that you can live on an all-potato diet, if you eat the skins for vitamins. You don't even need the milk or meat. I do not, however, plan to try this.

Well, it worked for the Irish for a few centuries. Until the Potato Blight hit, that is.
