Now a days, I would say, it's just hard to tell wether the veggies or fruits we buy are 100% organic,there's a lot of factors to consider if it's really organic or not.
I love mashed potatoes, and I also love fast food French fries, I order it few times a month. Hehe
The other day I made sweet potato tortillas and they're really good, I'll make it again will share the recipe and will post it on my recipe blog @myrecipes, I'd love it you could join me there too! 😊
Up until the past two years, we grew our own potatoes. Then my husband needed surgery, and the garden became my responsibility alone, so I had to downsize. I do miss homegrown potatoes and green beans, both of which I had to eliminate. But I did get plenty of tomatoes, cucumbers, and squash!
Sprayed potatoes? I had to look this up: Chlorpropham (or CIPC) is isopropyl-N-(3-chlorophenyl) carbamate, and is widely used as a sprout suppressing agrochemical applied to stored potatoes. Either it doesn't work, or I've been buying un-sprayed, because my store potatoes stored in a cool, dry place almost ALWAYS sprout within a week or so. Thank you for another informative post, @fitinfun!
Potatoes are sprayed something like 15 times throughout the growing cycle. Pretty much everything you get in a traditional grocery has been sprayed - organic or not, @carolkean. But the less spray the better. Interesting that yours are sprouting. There are YT videos with people showing they will not sprout. Such a mess in the food supply these days. Just do the best you can :)

@fitinfun It is a shame the government allows spraying of food. we grow our own and never spray.
