    Potatoes are perfectly fine, especially if you eat the skins (and why wouldn't you, they are sooo good) and don't load them up with too much stuff.

    Actually I'd be interested to know how people eat baked potatoes, different topping ideas and such. I haven't found anything that beats a little bit of butter or sour cream, but I'd like to know what others use, if anyone cares to share. :)

    I wouldn't reccomend it, but one guy lived on nothing but potatoes for 60 days and lost wieght and improved his cholesterol and so on.

    Love the spud! I have a colossal baked potato a few times a week. Usually with a tiny pat of butter and a little freshly ground black pepper, sometimes with ranch dressing, and less often, loaded. Yum yum yum.

    I also like cutting them into thick slices and sprinkling some Mrs Dash on them, then baking them.

    I hope not- They are my weakness! Forget candy and ice cream- give me a plate of hashbrowns or a baked potato instead!
