- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Well, them being largely starch/carbs isn't helping either.
Potatoes are an odd duck in the carb world.
I've read some research about how they don't metabolize the way you'd think for being the carb they are.
If I can find it I'll drop a link, it's been a few years since I read it.
That said, I don't care - you can take my breakfast potatoes, my mashed potatoes, my roasted potatoes, from my cold, dead, clawed hand. 🤣
Even converting them to raw calories, potatoes are pretty great. A whole-ass baked potato (without toppings) is less than a lot of kinds of normal candy bars, and way, way more filling. The trick is to not drown it in butter, cheese, and sour cream if you want a healthy meal.
