Yes, potatoes were rationed during World War II in several countries, including the UK. Due to food shortages and the need to conserve supplies for the military and those on the front lines, governments implemented rationing systems that limited the amount of potatoes and other staple foods that individuals could purchase. This was part of broader efforts to manage resources effectively during the war.

Many products were rationed during the second world war. Potatoes were part of the rationed goods in England and allied countries but rural areas often had extra available and all citizens were encouraged to "dig for Victory" and grow their own vegetables. At the start of the rationing program it was suggested that each person be allowed one pound of potatoes per day, per person. This never really came about as Winston Churchill introduced the "fair share" points system.
