Potatoes

Raw potatoes are delicious why would you add food repulsion to that item? I understand if its rotten or something but if you brush the dirt off potatoes are great straight from the ground.

idk, my aunt used to eat raw potatos she dumped some kind of salt on them to make it less "raw" tasting
i thought it wasnt so bad ina pinch
but not on a consistant basis but yea no idea why they added this

Eww. Really? Same is with eating mushrooms in pretty much any form, especially raw. Eww... For me its already the thought i get from eating certain raw food making me feel ill...
Carrots are totally another thing. Yummy.

Everyone is playing the same character with the same personal history, arson being the cause for imprisonment, and has to have a cig often, maybe (s)hes like me! Just Eww!

i think if you FORCE your charactor to eat it alot
you should be able to build a tolerance to it then

Just dont understand why its a thing at all. you can eat raw potato all day it wont make you sick unless like Sr. posted you just dont like them. little salt yeah if you like salt but theyre good without it.

Raw potatoes have more solanine than cooked ones.

Eat ze bugs! Ze bugs! Jokes aside... You really can't eat raw foods without getting sick? Also Mushrooms!!! Simmered ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥'s are amazing!

On topic- I think it's the same as some of the veggies not being listed as veggies for whatever reason.

some interesting facts about eating raw potatoes:
1: You can eat them, but they don't provide much in the way of nutrition because your body can't absorb them as well.
2: Potatoes can actually be toxic if green, due to a high concentration of lectins and solanine.

One interesting fact:
1: Solanine is only irritable in large quantities and only toxic in even larger. A 200 lb person would need to eat 20 lbs of potatoes, in one serving, with skin on to induce acute symptoms. Therefore in regards to a fresh out of the ground potato there is no reasoning that justifies food repulsion. Things nobody cared to know vol 4.

You don't know potatoes bro it entirely depends on the potato and many potatoes the skin has more fiber and nutrients then the soft inside lol.

When you say delicious, you must mean awful.
