Re: no spuds in Australia

Are Aussies big on spuds and chips?

I guess if things get dire those kid's toys, Mr Potato, could end up feeling hunted men.

Indeed, although seriously we used to eat a lot of potatoes but these days it's mostly pasta or rice, we all seem to have gone off them at the same time.

Re: no spuds in Australia

fake news I would say? I live in a small obscure little town - all our food is cartaged in each week from miles away and yesterday I had a choice off three different kinds of spuds to be - we buy chips and whatever on a regular basis - I still love a box of chips - no shortage around here???
