I'm allergic to white potatoes.
The smell of a pot of them boiling is enough to drive me from the house.
You have any idea how many processed foods have potato flour in them?
Canned soups frozen pizzas, hell even shredded cheese has it in there ( to prevent sticking along with cellulose).
And forget ordering anything deep fried. They only have one fryer back there.
Except for White Castle, they fry their onion rings in a separate fryer, not for me, but because they want the favor of the
onions to come thru unmasked by the potatoes.
And a special shout out to the Rusty Bucket in Hilliard, Ohio who when I asked about weither they made their sweet potato fries in the same oil, admitted that they did use the same fryer but if I was willing to wait they would drain the oil, clean the machine and fry me up a batch.
