Ugly spuds

Even before I removed them from the bag I was aware that the sweet potatoes were likely past their prime.  Little did I know a monster was a brewin.


Out of curiosity I looked up whether or not potatoes of this nature were edible and found the responses pretty entertaining. Some described toxins that can kill, others described cutting off green parts and being good to go, and still others debated how soft was too soft.  For the love of potatoes, they shouldn't be able to stand up on their own with the help of their leafy arms, nor should they feel like they're already baked before you bake them!


Needless to say we opted not to eat these ugly little spuds.
