This is an excellent article about potatoes, carbs, and if they help or hurt a diet.

    Mmmmmm, potatoes! I had a baked potato for dinner last week with the works and it was good. Very satiating :D

    Good article. I like both, in many different ways.

    To me, sweet potatoes taste like attempting to put chicken on ice cream. It's just too sweet for a vegetable. So white potato carbs are way better for me because they don't make me gag.
