	I have just paid a tenner for another sack of old ones from the farm gate. Twice the price of last year and twice as scabby. It is surprising how many of them have got like a little bum.Have never seen that before. Once you have taken out all the scabby holey bits they still taste pretty damned fine!

	I love potatoes, especially jacket ones and plain boiled new ones. So many come with lots of scabby bits on now but I got some good ones from Morrisons last week that were really clean and tasted good. They are Maris Peer from Suffolk so didn't have to travel far! Lizx

	I like all potatoes - fresh new ones, roasties, chips and buttery mash. But, we tend to eat rice, pasta and crusty bread probably more often.
