you can get sick from eating anything! (depending on the quantity) yes you can get sick from potatoes because they often grow slightly poisenous spores but it would take atleast 1 and a half bad potatoes to make you sick SO DONT EAT POTATOES! (umm.... that are bad...)
In general, no they won't make you sick, though some people may get some diarrhea. It is best to peel the potato first though, and avoid green potatoes. A toxin in or just under the skin of the potato, called solanine, can cause nasty side effects. I have added a link below.
I think your partly wrong. Once you cook a potatoe all the vitamins and nutrients are gone and a ripe fully browned potatoe with the skin on it can be greatly enjoyed sliced, with a side of ranch dressing-it's great for your skin, once you cook them the vitamins and minerals are all nil and the previous answer is right that you get diarrhea, but only in the beginning, I was thinking I was shocking my system a little with some specific vitamin, possibly potassium. I have heard, read, and verified that once you cook a potatoe its like eating air and can only be bad for you fried, but the charts say that a 'cooked' potatoe will have the same high levels of vitamins, but it's not true, once you cook a potatoe it's no good . . .make sure you get rid of the eys, ers,and wash them good and you might start adding them to your salads raw.
No. Potatoes can even be eaten raw. If you eat a raw potatoe, I have been told not to eat the very thin light green layer which sometimes exists right under the skin. Otherwise the white part is quite good, and crunchy.
No, raw potatoes are not toxic, with the exception of the green parts. These may contain toxic levels of solanin. Raw potatoes, however, may cause flatulence in many people.
it depends if you eat to much or if you are that kind of person that get sick allot from stuff like raw potatoes
No. You can eat them raw as well and not get sick.
Yes that is possible if the salad is bad.
If it is potato salad that is made with mayonnaise, then it spoils when not in the refrigerator and makes people sick. Not a good picnic food if you are out in the sun where it can get hot before eating.
No, potato salad is fatning
Potato salad is a great side for hamburgers.

Usually, potato salad is eaten with a fork. Although a spoon or a spork do nicely, too.
That is approximately 1/2 a quart of potato salad.

Mayo is better. The salad dressing can dominate the taste.
Onion is what goes bad in the potatoe salad because it attracks bacteria. If you use mayo that is home made then that can go bad but the commercial mayo has preservatives in it. If you put an onion out on the counter when someone is sick and let it there over night you will see how it attracks the bacteria.
