Can it be harmful in any way for a cat to eat raw potato?
Yes. Raw potato and any part of the plant is toxic to a cat's system. Potatoes, as well as tomatoes belong to the plant family Solanaceae, and are related to Deadly Nightshade plant. They contain a poisonous alkaloid that can cause violent diarrhoea and other, more serious, symptoms. Uncooked or green potatoes and raw potato peelings are all toxic.
Once cooked, the alkaloid is destroyed, making the potato safe to eat.

Why a tomato has more electric value then a potato?
The science fair projects which involved sticking copper and zinc plates demonstrates a simple chemical reaction call an electrolytic reaction, which is a simple battery. Before the question can be answered, we have to investigate how electrolytic reactions occur. The reaction occurs due to two materials (the electrodes) that have different affinities (or attraction) to electrons, which differs enough that one is willing to give up an electron and the other is willing to accept one. These reactions usually do not happen by themselves, and only occur when a "salt bridge" is between the two electrodes, which provides free, nonreactive ions to carry charge from one electrode to the other. The more ions there are in the salt bridge, the faster the reaction, which brings us to the original question. The two produce provides the necessary salt bridge through their acidity, which is the measure of free H+ ions in solution. Since a tomato is more acidic (4.1 pH) than a potato (~5 pH), there are more free ions floating around, thus the electrolytic reaction occurs faster. The faster the reaction occurs the more electrons are moving, thus the higher the voltage generated by this impromptu battery.
What happens when you oxidize an apple or potato?
Nothing it means that it has been exsposed to oxygen and it has lost all of its nutriants. If you eat and oxidized apple I don't feel so good. I'm not sure what happens to others.

What is the nutritional value of potato?
Raw potatoes contain a small amount of fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, no fat, folate and a few other B vitamins, calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, copper, manganese and selenium.
However, when potatoes are peeled and cooked, such as in French fries, not only does the saturated fat (solid fat) and sodium increase, but the levels of most of these minerals decrease.

Core cabbage and slice into wedges. 2. Peel and slice potatoes into medium chunks 3. Peel and chop onion Bring chicken base and water to a boil in a 4-qt. pot. Add carrots and simmer 10 minutes. Layer potatoes then cabbage on top of carrots. Sprinkle with caraway, salt and pepper. Add onion, kielbasa and apple slices on top. Cook 30-45 minutes or until all vegetables are tender. This recipe is requested more than any other dish I have ever taken to pot-luck suppers. Hope you like it!
Potatoes were created. you might be surprised to here that people invented potatoes to protect policy owners insureds and beneficiaries under insurance contacts when insurers fail to perform contractual obligations due to financial impairment.
Where were mashed potatoes made?
I think we need some clarification here. Are you asking where mashed potatoes were invented? Or do you want to know where modern instant mashed potatoes are made? I don't know if we can definitively answer the first question, because mashed potatoes are so basic. Potatoes are native to the Americas. I don't know if the native peoples mashed their potatoes or cooked them in some other fashion, but I do know that potatoes weren't introduced to Europe until Europeans conquered the Americas. The people in South America had already domesticated the potato by then. It seems reasonable to suppose that they might have boiled their potatoes, and sometimes mashed them, but I don't know if there is any evidence to prove that they did.

- 45 percent of the daily value for vitamin C.
- More potassium (620 mg) than even bananas, spinach, or broccoli;
- 10 percent of the daily value of B6;
- Trace amounts of thiamine, riboflavin, folate, magnesium, phosphorous, iron, and zinc.
no because they are high in starch and could cause a reaction in the horses stomach. yes they can i know a friend that feeds her cob potatoes she has for a long time now so the horse is not dead so i suppose so
Who invented the potato chip bag clip?
He sent in a letter with the idea on it and later that year he got a letter back saying thanks for the idea now you use something Jim shaw thought up of one day.
George Welch, my father, was the first person awarded a patent for the chip clip. November 2, 1982. I have the original patient which was at the time called a bag closure device. It wasn't until later he named the device "Chip Clip", and discovered that someone was manufacturing the item patient pending. He sued that company, and for years received a percentage of the sales, quarterly.
