Can a potato light a light bulb?
It's not the potato, but the electrodes you use to connect the lamp which must be different -e.g. a copper nail and an iron nail. The moisture in the potato acts as an electrolyte and metals chemically react with it, acquiring different charges (one becomes more negative than the other) and, hence, a potential difference is set up between the two electrodes. This potential difference may be high enough to cause a small lamp to glow. This will also work with lemons, oranges, etc.
