low calorie adora potato

Wouldn't it be easier and cheaper just to eat half a potato?

Anyone found this potato in their local market, if so at what premium
price?

5 oz adora = 87 calories
5 os idaho = 117 calories

Four growers in Britain are to plant the potatoes this spring and the crop
will be on sale before the summer. Dieters desperate for a potato,
however, can already find the slimline variety at an Essex farm shop.

This is a story from last year - I know because that farm shop is just down
the road from me : ) The potatoes disappeared immediately that article came
out early last year, and I haven't seen them since.

1) I thought LC was dead....

2) I don't miss potatos at all. If I'm going off plan for some reason, I'm
not sure I'd pick a potato...but others may see it differently. I guess it
would be suitable as a carb up for a long ride, but still not my 1st choice.
Hmm....for that purposed I'd want a normal potato, or a yam.

I miss Checkers French Fries.

Checkers is a fast food place, perhaps National in scope. They appear to
advertise themselves as the official NASCAR fast food.

There must perhaps be no higher possible sanction...

There is a orangeish like oily crunchy crust with good salt taste and
after taste over a tender inside.

I voluntarily had them once since I low carbed. They were "forced upon
me" the last time I had them.

They forced them on me by including them in my burger bag... at no extra
cost. Man, were they great ! !

I needed the fat that day, for dear Dr. Bob Atkins, and I didn't
complain about their forcing me to eat this unordered food. :-) I biked
and extra mile pretty fast, and surely that was enough to consume this
forced treat.

I am hoping that someday soon, they will again force me to eat those
fries. But no luck so far.

I agree with you. Ordinary potatos aren't my choice for breaking low
carb. Even at 1/3 less starch, ordinary potatos just aren't tasty enough.

When Daylight Savings Time was first debated, it was common for
opponents to claim that if people wanted extra daylight, why didn't they
just get up an hour earlier and have it for themselves.
