Potatoes

Bug zappers contain 3 main parts: A transformer, Metal grids, and a light. Bug zappers typically use UV lights to attract bugs at night because bugs can see UV much better than other visible light and obviously they are naturally drawn to it. When the bug approaches the light an electrical arc is created across the bug which vaporizes the bug when it flies between two grids of metal spaced very thinly apart. In order to achieve such high voltages that can cause an arc the bug zapper contains a transformer that steps the voltage up from 120V to around 2,000V or more.

A potato has several depretions which are called 'eyes'. Now, if a piece of potato with an eye is buried in the soil, watered regularly and kept in sunlight, then after a few days you will find that shoots and roots are developing from the 'eye'and thus a new potato plant grows.

really that depends on who you're feeding . 9 men wouldn't eat what 9 ladies etc. but if say 1/4 to 1/2 lb per person

There is not much difference in either case.

The voltage can be increased by putting vegetable that you have mentioned in series.

By increasing the voltage, charge can be increased and it can be used to power small light bulbs.

for average size, 45 minutes-1 hour at about 190 degrees Celsius

If so, would that be about 374 degrees Fahrenheit?

Nutritionally, the potato is high in carbohydrates and a good source of protein, vitamin C, the B vitamins, potassium, phosphorus, and iron. Most of the minerals and protein are concentrated in a thin layer beneath the skin, and the skin itself is a source of food fiber; health authorities therefore recommend cooking and eating it unpeeled.

The calorie content of fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, depends on what ingredients (in total) are used to make the fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and gravy, and the quantity of all those ingredients. Please feel free to ask the question again and include more details. Meanwhile, for the calories content of potatoes, including mashed potatoes, and the calorie content of chicken, please see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

It depends what else they are eating. If a normal 3 veg and meat meal, then about 25 pounds of potato.

Sweet potato, like white (etc.) potatoes are tubers, in other words, edible roots. They grow underground. (in the ground.)

Monsanto has closed its east coast GMO seed potato operation. The company is abandoning its Crystal, Maine plant, which opened in 1992. In its place, former employees are launching a new non-genetically modified seed potato company called SeedPro.

The Crystal facility, operated by Monsanto potato subsidiary NatureMark, had been producing GMO potatoes with Bt and RoundUp Ready genes. Quoted by the Bangor Daily News, NatureMark's former seed operation manager Dave Hammond said the GMO potatoes hadn't worked out because farmers "weren't buying it because their customers wouldn't buy it."

Varieties like Newleaf Atlantic and Newleaf Superior were intended for fields from Florida all the way north to Atlantic Canada. The Maine closure will leave Naturemark with just its Boise-based Idaho operation.

Farmers Were Generally Prepared

Nationally, over the past year, farmers heard warnings from companies like Maine's McCain Foods that consumers were not happy with GMO potatoes. But food processor and restaurant worries went very public two weeks ago when the Wall Street Journal reported that french fry king McDonalds and other fast foods outlets have decided to not use GMO potatoes. Buyers including Idaho-based Simplot, the USA's biggest potato processor, then asked farmers not to bring them GMO harvests.

The result will be a major downturn in GMO potato planting, although its too early to quantify. Last year, GMO potatoes accounted for 4% of US production. This year, it may be almost none.

The good news is that most farmers paid attention to warning signs and didn't get caught by the spud meltdown. Almost all bought non-GMO seed potatoes for 2000. According to John Thompson of Potato Growers of Idaho, "the whole story came as no surprise to any grower here." Even though planting in western Idaho began as early as late March, long before the Wall Street Journal story, Thompson says "I'd be surprised if anyone got caught ... it really won't effect our industry."

Therefore the is GMO potatos.

Pineapples are the fruit of a tropical plant that grows to be about 3 to 5 feet tall. Potatoes are a vegetable that grows under the ground.

Note: Sensual does not always mean sexual!

Professional massage therapy is focused on the therapeutic aspects of having your body tissues manipulated. Sometimes this can feel sensual, but that is not the intended purpose of the therapy. Sensual, by definition, means 'sensate' and that refers to having all your senses filled. It is not necessary to feel sexual if you are feeling sensual. All too often these terms are misunderstood and thought to be the same. They are not. It is perfectly natural to feel sensual without any sexual thoughts while receiving a massage.

But there are other therapies such as Tantric Massage, very sensual indeed, and intended for couples only.

The quantity of potatoes does not alter the cooking time. But the size of potato or potato pieces affects the time it takes for them to boil. 1, 10 or 100 potatoes of similar size will require the same cooking time when boiled. But larger potatoes take longer to boil than small potatoes. Cut the potatoes into pieces of approximately the same size, and they will all be done at about the same time.

The normal serving of potato salad should be around 4 ounces. 1 pound would feed 4 people, so you would need 33 and 3/4 pounds to feed 135 people.

Potatoes are stored in cold bunkers at around 40 to 45 degrees and low humidity, also they are kept in the dark to stop sprouting.In a refrigerator they will go bad if it is to cold and they are moist- it starts the growing process. Dark -cool-dry is the way to keep them for a long time.
