    There is two things going on there.

    First if you look closely you can see holes in the spud. This is insect damage, likely caused by a wireworm (larval form of a clickbeetle species.)

    Second is a physiological damage in storage/shipping causing the black color. This is not blight or another fungus, but the tubers reaction to suboptimal storage condition (not enough O2).

      Oh that makes sense. I wanted to bake them in the oven but most of them had this kind of pattern. They weren’t smelly or anything and had a normal consistency.

    It’s starches are being broken down and used in glycolysis before you had a chance to. The bastards stole it from you. Burn them.

    First, I don’t know. Second, I see a well postured cartoon poodle in a sit position, side profile. Mirrored in the other potato too.

    ITT: a bunch of people not actually answering the question asked and a load of casual racism about Irish folk.

    i see two praying mantises having a bubble gum blowing competition and the one on the left is trying to impersonate no doubt, not the singer but the whole band, the one on the right is trying to impersonate the daughter from the television show with steve urkel that steve wasn’t trying to date, you know the one that had the attitude? and she is talking into the telephone and telling the telephone that it is not time for tea while blowing a bubble the size of her head. what do you see?

      I didn’t expect to start my day with a potato-rorschach test.

      Somebody else already said they see poodles, and now I can’t unsee it. So in order to answer your question more organically, I decided to flip the image upside down and try again.

      So, what I see is,

      on the left side, a chef carrying a dish under one of those dome lids. On the right side, I see a Disney-esque cartoon character with frizzy pigtails (like the main character from the kids’ Youtube channel, Gracie’s Corner), in a puffy dress, either leaning toward the chef or blowing a kiss toward them.

      This is a fun game. What does everyone else see?
