Raw potatoes are very high maintenance: they like cold storage but not fridges and freezers. They undergo a process called cold-induced sweetening which converts the potato’s starch to reducing sugars. Cooking those sugars can result in the carcinogen acrylamide.


What the heck was I learning in school?? I mean not once has the periodic table come up in my adult life. Potatoes? Every darn day!

Mike the Headless Chicken lived for eighteen months after being decapitated. During that time he went on tour.

I really should have said balancing electrons was pointless. It never became applicable to my adult life, thankfully?! I really shouldn’t have dragged the periodic table. It is pretty neat.

Feels like no food is safe these days.

Same! Who knew pale limp chips are healthier for you 😂 I turned down the dial on my toaster. She’s set to 2.5 out of a possible 5 😞
That's alright for me. I'm one of those who basically has warm bread 😂
Usually have it set on 2 and don't let it go the whole time 😂

Love toast but I have to have it medium toasted, leave it cool so the butter doesn’t make it soggy. Bakery bread makes a difference too. Could eat it every meal lol

The word “zoot” in zoot suit has roots in jive. Saying something is ‘the end to all ends’ is extremely high praise, so the clothier Harold Fox went for the last letter of the alphabet and dubbed the article a zoot suit. 😄

ETA: This thread’s toast talk warmed my heart just like i warm my bread 🥰
