this and potatoes are nightmare fuel in their own unique ways
Excuse me, what
If we didn't eat them they'd eat us.
D:
Potatoes are so romantic
HAVE YOU SEEN THE HORRIFIC SHIT POTATOES DO WHEN THEY LOOK FOR NUTRIENTS
Noooo what the fuuuuuckkk whyyyy
'tato hungy
Also, a prolonged sun exposure makes them poisonous with arsenic-like chemicals unless you hide them indoors or cook them. You can tell by seeing them turning green, like poisonous potatoes in Minecraft. It's not THAT lethal, but can teach a human or an animal a lesson that even if you see a potato on the surface, don't feel lucky about it, don't dig, it'd fuck you up.
As someone who experienced solanine poisoning from a bad french fry (yes, really) I wouldn't wish it on anyone. A single fry was enough for about 14 hours of -severe- food poisoning symptoms on about a five minute rotation between trips to the bathroom plus neurological issues that lasted me a couple days. It was horrible.
Holy F. Didn't think it may be so severe. Glad you are okay now.
