No. The potato is a starchy, tuberous crop from the perennial nightshade Solanum tuberosum. The word "potato" may refer either to the plant itself or to the edible tuber. A tuber, short, thickened, mostly underground stem that constitutes the resting stage of certain seed plants.

It bears minute scale leaves, each with a bud that has the potential for developing into a new plant. The potato is a typical tuber, as is the Jerusalem artichoke. The term is also used imprecisely but widely for fleshy roots or rhizomes of other plants that resemble tubers. The little buds (you can see them on the potato) can put cut with some of the potato with it and plant this in the ground. A new plant will grow from it.

A person can live on just potatoes alone. (Not chips!). But you have to eat about 8 pounds a day.
