I can''t believe you are demonising potatoes? They are very nutritious and I eat 4 to 5 a day and my weight is perfect and I have a lovely flat tummy. Think you need to perhaps get your facts straight as you are influencing people on this website. No one need be afraid of eating potatoes and plenty of them.
