Canada Gets a New Potato

[tay]

Canada’s first low glycemic response all-purpose potato is supported by the Canadian Diabetes Association

This variety resulted from the potato breeding programs’ focus on lower reducing sugars and high dry matter. These are among the factors that influence Carisma’s nutritional content and GI* characteristics. The Canadian Diabetes Association recommend consumers choose low-GI foods as part of healthy eating.

Blackadder: To you it’s a potato, to me it’s a potato. But to
Sir Walter Bloody Raleigh it’s country estates, fine carriages,
and as many girls as his tongue can cope with. He’s making
a fortune out of the things; people are smoking them,
building houses out of them… They’ll be eating them next.
[shoves it into Baldrick’s chest; Baldrick takes it and looks at it]

Baldrick: Stranger things have happened.

Blackadder: Oh, exactly.

Baldrick: [continues] That horse becoming Pope.

Blackadder: The what? [Someone knocks on the door and Baldrick goes to
answer it] Oh God. Probably some birk with a parrot on his
shoulder selling plaster gnomes of Sir Francis Drake and his
Golden beHind.

King Edwards are good. Great to make chips out of - washed down by a cup of Earl Grey.

I have no idea. Next time you are at a store check out the price. I think she said in the clip they are at Sobeys, Whole Foods and Metro so far.

Of course if you aren't a diabetic or weight watcher that wants to eat potatoes but can't until now, you won't buy them if they cost more than the regular types.......

The thread deals with Canadians who have a health related option for a potato.

The results of British inbreeding is being exemplified by your nonsensical and unrelated posts.

These are regular size potatoes, not the little ones.

Couldn't tell from the link if this is non GMO or not.

 

[Tecumsehsbones]

They're all GMO. Four thousand years of research and modification by Indian scientists.
