Fun fact: potato plants under the right conditions can produce fruits resembing cherry tomatoes. They are extremely poisonous.

Another fun fact: Since both potatoes and tomatoes are nightshades, you can graft them together and have a plant that produces both potatoes and tomatoes.

I think Tato(e)s are just mutated tomatoes. You never really pull them out of the soil to harvest the potato part.

They compete for nutrients though. It’s a novelty, but will eradicate your soil and produce crap plants.
