I had to buy this sweet potato

[Nelly]

I went shopping this morning and went to pick up a sweet potato. Had to buy this one, but now I'm not sure I can eat it. It looks like a ferret or something (well the head of). The photos aren't awfully clear but here's my very sweet potatohead!

Perhaps it's just me!!!!

OMG! That's crazy! Cool!

 

[jorats]

Too funny! He does look like a smallish animal. Did you name him? :lol3:

 

[Nelly]

Did you name him? :lol3:

I definitely won't be able to cook and eat him then

Nelly goes off to think of sweet names

That's too funny!! :laugh2: That reminded me of an image I saw online somewhere:

Lol! The last time I bought one of those I stuck it in water and grew a plant, haha. You can't eat that one! : P May as well get little flowers out of it.

lol could aways try selling it on ebay.....

Lol, I showed my brother your potatoe and he agreed it was cool! I wouldn't be able to eat it either. Too bad you couldn't save it from going bad somehow :lol:

 

[jorats]

I like the idea of growing a plant on it.

Any ideas what I can do to preserve my sweet, sweet potato? He's still looking good at the moment but there's disagreement over whether he's a ferret, otter or mole (I took him to work today to show people!)

Lol! I think ferret it my #1 of what it looks like. I can see someone thinking otter, or weasel.. but mole? Lol

 

[Fidget]

Nice vegetable! lol. Yeah, I think it's a ferret! That's the beauty of pictures, you've already preserved it forever!

Here's my best animal/food pic ever. A slop of gravy, looks like a rabbit running, eh?

 

[Melissa]

:rofl3: Is that your pic?

 

[Nelly]

WOW that IS a rabbit running!

 

[Fidget]

I didn't wipe it up for about a week

Cool stuff :cool2: I think you should plant it in a pot indoors and watch it grow, it'll have really pretty vines growing from it and maybe eventually you'll get more potatoes :lol6: Here's a link to growing sweet potatoes: http://www.downsizer.net/Projects/Growing_Food/Growing_Sweet_Potatoes/
Just put the tater in a glass of water (or Miracle Gro) with toothpicks to suspend it and keep refilling the water.
