Right now in summer: 67 overnight while we sleep (helps that we have tiered power pricing where late night power is almost half the price of it during the day), 72 when we’re up, and 80 between 2 and 6pm when we have the most expensive power hours. Luckily we’re in an apartment that’s like three years old, so it’s surprisingly well insulated and hasn’t gotten above 73 during those hot hours.
My first guess was crappy airport green chile cheese fries (which nobody outside of Colorado or New Mexico seems capable of doing right either), but this is an abomination no matter what they slap on it. That “gravy” looks like dumpster drippings poured over fries, I’m glad you survived that nightmare dish.
Most home processing methods like boiling, cooking, and frying potatoes have been shown to have minimal effects on solanine levels. For example, boiling potatoes reduces the α-chaconine and α-solanine levels by only 3.5% and 1.2% respectively, but microwaving potatoes reduces the alkaloid content by 15%. Deep frying at 150 °C (302 °F) also does not result in any measurable change.
They’re no more toxic than cooked potatoes, unless you only eat microwaved ones.
No, never. AFAIK they aren’t toxic, just that the starch is poorly digested. Either way, I’ve never gotten sick from it, so 🤷
It’s odd because I have had digestive issues off and on through the years, but the potatoes have never precipitated it. (It’s mostly anything spicy, which sucks as I love spicy food-- it’s a price I pay willingly sometimes)
I love eating a raw potato like an apple, for whatever reason. Any time I’m cooking a dish with potatoes, I’ll wash and peel one for me to eat. My boyfriend looked like I had grown a third arm the first time he saw me do it.
It’s the perfect mix of crunchy and juicy, but not sweet.
My partner bought a study Bible for academic use a few months ago, and our roommate bought herself one (for actual worship use) a couple weeks ago?
