My ancesters left Ireland (because) of potatos.

I'm touched!

You know, here I am a native Idahoan and I've never tried potato bread... but I'm going to have to now. Do grocery stores carry it?

Oh sure, be reasonable about it.......
 
Death is worse for a person than carbs. Beyond that, I can't say much good about them, Sanity.

So what is this "carbs evil" thing, of which you speak. I no hable...

Yep...It is good toasted...It's heavy. Makes a nice subbie sandwich.

Excess carbs trigger excess insulin, which wreaks havoc in the body. Generally speaking, that is. Some folks can smoke ten packs of cigs a day and be fine, some can eat carbs till the cows come home, with no ill effects.

You're from Idaho and you've never tried potato bread?  Jezz, that's like being from New York and never trying cheese.  Just for that, you must suffer the following indignaty:

(Doing my best Beavis and Butthead impersonation):
Heh, heh... heh, heh... I da ho... heh, heh... heh, heh.
Yeah, yeah... I... da ho! Yeah!
Shut up, Beavis!

As for finding potato bread well, all I can say is that it's in the grocery stores around here.  Hell, it's in the convenience stores around here.  All I can suggest is that you go look.  Should be in the bread isle.

Oh by the way folks, they make potato hot dog and hamburger buns too!
