Re: Potatoes
I haven't bought potatoes for years, at home I always eat rice instead.
One thing I have noticed is that you never get big potatoes these days - I would buy them to bake, scoop out the insides, mix with chilli beans, cheese, parsley etc refill, then sprinkle with cheese which is melted in the oven before serving.
While you could do this with smaller potatoes it is better with the larger ones at least 120 -150mm long whereas these days you never see them more than about half that diameter.
