Comment on Do people eat this?

I get your point though, if you’re a bit wealthier, of course you’d be looking at potatoes or other foods - and it can get really ingredient cheap if you buy a sack of potatoes and mostly just eat potatoes :)

As a Brit, you’ll boil water for tea all day anyway.
Just put the potatoes in the kettle to save energy.

Good call. For a treat, you can take your part-cooked potato to your local library, then wedge the potato behind a radiator, to crisp up the edges a little :)
