Potatoes are amazing. They grow easily in a wide variety of soil and produce food which has every nutrient we need except for a complete protein. And, they're a vegetable, so you can tell someone you're eating your vegetables and then go to McDonald's for some frenchy fries

The frying is the questionable part. (Well, the french part too but...)

Still vegetables! Everyone knows that a nice dinner at a Chinese buffet is healthy if you eat a few green beans lmao

I mean, in fairness, "vegetable" isn't a scientific term at all, so whether potatoes are vegetables (or tubers, or roots, or something else) is totally up for debate.

But they're a hell of a lot more of a vegetable than pizza is!
