Baked potatoes generally are not crispy. Potatoes are crisped by pan frying or deep fat frying. However, whole potatoes baked in their skins can have somewhat crisper skin by rubbing the skin with olive oil and plenty of salt before baking.
Yes they are.
fiber in potatoes is mostly in their skin, a single baked potato will provide with over 3 grams of fiber.
If you are eating the skin with your baked potato, then you are getting a great source of carbohydrates (starch), fiber and vitamin C. Potatoes are a wonderful staple that can be a part of a healthy meal -- as long as you continue to add a variety of foods to your diet. So, the effect is that baked potatoes contribute needed nutrients to a healthy meal plan. However, if you are not eating a variety and allowing most of your calories to come from potatoes, then you will be short of many other nutrients you need for survival. The effect would be to become malnourished or short of nutrients you need for survival.
Sometimes in Europe they are called "jacket potatoes" because they are served in the skin or "jacket".

Yes, for several hours. A baked potato, especially if the skin is intact, is not likely to spoil at room temperature. OTOH, it would be wiser to refrigerate cooked potatoes to be completely safe.
Hi, Cooked peas, broccoli, turnips, cooked cabbage, raw cabbage, Brussels sprouts, baked potatoes (with skin), sweet potatoes, carrots and cooked sweet corn are also fiber-rich.
The excess skin won't be removed by diet alone. Your skin will regain it's elasticity as you exercise. Keep at it, use bio-oil and your skin should return to normal.
