I would shy away from fried potatoes and french fries b/c there's too much fat to be reckoned with. ______________________ thricefan@cyber-rights.net You have to do what others won't to achieve what others don't. |

When you boil them they lose most of their carbs in the water along with all the nutrients. You get about 15g of carbs for 100g of bolied spuds but 100g of jacket spuds you get around 30g of carbs. Only problem with potatoes is they tend to make me store water to a greater degree. I'd say give them a go as it makes a change to pasta or rice.
