And how Scotland advised by an English woman, FROM THE FUTURE, HIGHLANDER NETFLIX, survived hunger in the bloody war of Culloden for Scotlands independence from Britain by planting many many potatoes in the 1740's I love potatoes done any way, and which I learnt on my last trip to England and briefly to Scotland are also called SPUDS . Hugs and blessings Jennifer.

They call potatoes 'spuds' here too, Jennifer.

Really enjoyed this alliterative verse, Gershon.... ! Though bland in taste, it can be made very tasty in umpteen ways !

Nothing like potatoes, soaking in the flavor of their surroundings. :) gw
