According to the school lunch police, it's a vegetable.

In my book, the USDA, and they FDA it is a starch along with other starchy

veggies because of how the body processes them into carbs.  They are nutrious,

but they are full of carbs.  I also try to serve true veggies aside starchy

veggies to balance the carbs with the protein so the meal is balanced.

I neat potatoes almost every single day.  I've been known to eat potato chips

along with my mashed potatoes, or potato pancakes with hashbrowns.
