Throughout America, potatoes are the most popular vegetable, even being ahead of other well known vegetables such as lettuce and onions. You can cook potatoes in a variety of ways, and they are included in one out of three meals eaten by almost all Americans. When they are prepared in a healthy way, a potato can be an excellent source of energy and also pack a nutritional punch. Like oranges, potatoes are very high in vitamin C and contains 45% of the vitamin C that's recommended for good health. Potatoes are also high in fibre and carbohydrates and contain more potassium than a banana. A potato is naturally low in calories and contains no fat, sodium, or cholesterol. The skins of the potatoes provide a helpful dose of fibre, iron, potassium, calcium, zinc, phosphorus, and several B vitamins. Therefore, baking a potato in its skin and eating the skin with the rest of the potato, provides you with the maximum nutritional benefit. You can prepare potatoes by boiling them, steaming them, or even roasting them. When you store potatoes, keep them in a cool, DARK place. Too much light will cause them to turn green and become poisonous. Never eat any potato that has green skin or flesh as it will make you ill. You can store them in the basement if you have one, as the basement is the best place to keep potatoes. From mashed potatoes to baked potatoes, a potato is something we all know and love. They serve many different tasty foods, and they provide our bodies with plenty of healthful benefits. The potato itself is low in calories, ideal for people dieting for weightloss, just keep in mind that its what you put on top of the potato that adds the calories, if you like sour cream, gravy or other toppings on your cooked potato. We all eat potatoes, some of us even grow our own. If a potato starts to sprout a little vine bud, just place it in healthy soil and you will soon have a harvest of small sweet baby potatoes. If there are more than one sprout on the potato, cut it up with a sprout in each part and plant all the parts separately, that way you can get 4 or more plants from each potato. Remember that the flowers are part of the poisonous Nightingale family and must never be eaten. Whether
you grow your on or buy them, the potato is
the one vegetable that makes everything just a
little bit better.
