What potatoes you buying are they gold encrusted?

Where I am you can basically get them by the crate load. I have no idea what one individual potato cost because I've never bought one individual potato. But my estimate would be about three for a dollar. Big ones like in the photo not little tiny ones.

Also don't get no ones in plastic wrapping they're more expensive and they're not any better. Just wash your vegetables. The mud and flavour admittedly it's mud flavour.

Why are wrapped in plastic? Don't they usually come in some sort of netting and or loose and you can get as many as you like in a cloth bag?

Usually the ones individually wrapped in plastic are being sold as microwaveable.

I guess we'll just ignore the fact that you don't need to wrap a potato in plastic to microwave it successfully.

In fact, you really shouldn't wrap your potato in plastic to microwave it. That's an awful idea.

That said, all potatoes are microwaveable anyway.

I think the idea is to show that it's already been cleaned and is ready to be microwaved without having to clean it.

It's still stupid and I would never buy one when I can get 5 lb bag for not that much more, but I don't think the idea is to microwave it in the plastic.
