Can potatoes make you sick?
Potatoes are a member of the nightshade family and contain the toxin solanine. A healthy potato tuber which is white and firm is perfectly safe to eat. When exposed to sunlight, potatoes turn green under the skin. This is an indication that the levels of solanine have increased. Most health professionals recommend that potatoes which have turned green be thrown away although some reports say it is safe to eat if you remove the green bits as well as any eyes or sprouts as they also contain high levels of solanine. It has also been reported that if you do eat potatoes which have turned green, after removing the green bits, deep-fry the potatoes as the toxin leeches into the oil. Discard of waste-oil. Never eat any of the outer part of the plant as the stems and leaves contain very high levels of solanine. See answers to: Are potatoes poisonous? What is solanine?
