I think putting an 'e' at the end of 'potato' will kill you faster than being one on a couch. Just sayin'.

Yes, the title is very dramatic, but research shows that a lack of physical activity in an individual’s life makes one much more likely to develop life-threatening conditions
I wonder how many millions of dollars it took for them to discover this.

The place I met my wife (now closed) made the most awesome potato...they called it the Long Bomb Exploding Potato. It was a giant Russet, probably 10" long, twice baked with grilled chicken chunks, broccoli, cheese, and bacon pieces.

Holy crap, I want one.

Me too! I'd go get one if I knew where to find 'em, but dang it that would mean I'd have to get up off the couch.

Well, I like my potatoes topped off with shredded cheese, black pepper, and sour cream while sitting on my couch eating it.

There is a place here in Frederick, MD called a.k.a Frisco's and they have the best potato salad. They call them 'Exploded Potatoes.' they are served hot/warm and they are just loaded with stuff. We can't get enough of them and usually bring them as our dish whenever we go to a party. They are ALWAYS a big hit.

Just because I'm a lazy ass watching blu-rays or playing games on the PS3 23/7 does not mean the Potatoe should be insulted for my lack of physical activity as I lounge in the recliner.

Potatoes deserve better.

I love Mr. Potato Head. I've been a collector for several years now. Just recently picked up the BumbleBee (Transformers) Potato Head.
