Everybody (well most everybody) likes a spud with their meat. Had a heated discussion today at break regarding the Russet vs the Russet Burbank.
Growing up I remember the No.1 Russets with the thick skins and if you had three number 1's you would have three spuds that would equal the size of a football and we would fight over the skins to slather butter on. I didn't make any points when I said the Burbanks had thin skins
Now most of what you see in the stores are Burbanks. So, any spud farmers in our group to tell me I am talking out my wazoo?
