Monster Potato!


Earlier in the week, my family and I went grocery shopping and bought a 10 lb bag of potatoes for $0.89. Yeah, it was a deal we couldn't pass up. But little did we know that in the bag was a monster potato that measured 9 inches in length!

This can't be any kind of a world's record, but for us, it was the biggest potato we have ever seen!

What are farmers doing to grow such large potatoes? And how did this one make it into a bag of "cheap" potatoes?

After my daughter pointed out this freak of nature to me, I told her, "OK. This is going on the blog!" Yes, I share all these fun things with my blog readers!
