Potatoes in Trash Cans?

If you've got the itch for starch, here are a couple of potato videos, potatoes in trash cans and sweet potatoes in containers.

Potatoes don't really get as much notoriety unless they're fried or stuffed. Spuds are a:

• • Great source for vitamin B6, C, potassium
• • Food free of cholesterol, fat, and sodium
• • Low-calorie food (medium-sized spud ~110 calories)
• • Great source for phytonutrients (caffeic acid, carotenoids, flavonoids)
• • Member of the nightshade family
• • High fiber content source (skin)
• • Source of magnesium, phosphorous, and zinc

Enough of the petulant praising of potatoes, pals, here is a video of potatoes…and one of sweet potatoes!

Oh, here is the skinny on the sweet potatoes:

• • Rich in beta-carotene
• • Nutritious and high in fiber
• • High in vitamins A, B5, B6, thiamin, niacin, and riboflavin
• • Improve artery, blood, bone, muscle, and nerve function
• • Are DELICIOUS, (objectively speaking of course)
