Potatoes

The phrase "a sack of potatoes" is a colloquial expression often used to describe someone or something that is heavy, clumsy, or uncoordinated.

Just remember, it's always better to have leftovers than to have people leaving hungry!

The number of potatoes needed to equal one cup can vary depending on the size of the potatoes and how they are cut. On average, one medium potato yields about 1 to 1.5 cups of diced or mashed potatoes. Therefore, it would take approximately 1 to 1.5 medium potatoes to equal one cup.

Yes, the skin of a potato does reflect light. The skin of a potato contains a waxy cuticle that helps protect the potato from water loss and pathogens. This cuticle also reflects light, giving the potato its characteristic shine.

To measure the mass of a potato, you would use a balance scale or a digital scale. Place the potato on the scale and ensure it is stable and not rolling. Record the reading displayed on the scale, which will give you the mass of the potato in grams or ounces. Make sure to tare the scale before placing the potato on it to ensure an accurate measurement.

Depends on the size and density of the potato.

Grits are typically made from corn. As commonly prepared, they are fairly high in iron (8% of your USDRA - good) but high in sodium and carbs (22% and 10%).

Potatoes are low in sodium, and high in carbs (including 26% of your USDRA for dietary fiber). They are also a rich source of Vitamin C in addition to iron.

To determine how many 10 lbs bags of potatoes are needed to feed 200 people, we first need to calculate the total weight of potatoes required. Assuming each person will consume around 0.5 lbs of potatoes, the total weight needed would be 200 people x 0.5 lbs/person = 100 lbs. Since each bag contains 10 lbs of potatoes, you would need 100 lbs / 10 lbs/bag = 10 bags of potatoes to feed 200 people.

That is approximately 1/2 a quart of potato salad.

Yes, Benedict's reagent can be used to detect the presence of reducing sugars, such as glucose, in a solution. If potato juice contains glucose or other reducing sugars, it will react with Benedict's reagent to form a colored precipitate, indicating the presence of sugar. This reaction is based on the reduction of copper (II) ions in the reagent to copper (I) oxide by the reducing sugars.

Well, honey, back in the day, both "tomato" and "potato" were spelled with an "e" on the end. That's just how the English language used to roll. But eventually, someone decided to ditch the extra letter and now we're left with the simpler versions we use today. So, there you have it, a little history lesson served with a side of sass.

Well, isn't that a fun question! Potatoes don't have toes, they have "eyes" which are small indentations on the surface where new sprouts can grow.

Oh, dude, "all meat and no potatoes" is an old-school slang phrase that basically means you have substance without style.
