>How the fuck did anyone discover that these were edible?
Desperation.

Native americans went crazy with plants because no big animals.

>>19957931
>you need to boil them for half an hour before they're even sort of edible
20 minutes works fine, at least for the varieties I use. Less if I cut them up.

>>19957931
Shut the fuck up, tuberlet

10/10 post. It's time some truth got laid down around to the poors that post here

>you need to boil them for half an hour before they're even sort of edible
wut
I boil them, like, six minutes max. Perfect doneness for either just plain old boiled potatoes, potato salad or mashed potato.
I didn't believe you've ever cooked a potato.

>>19958185
why do you eat hard potatoes

>>19957931
Aliens.

>>19958202
They're not even remotely hard.
It's this yet another example of the laws of physics not applying to my kitchen?

I exclusively cook them in a crockpot for 8 hours put them IN THE FRIDGE overnight and then parboil them before I put them in whatever dish I want and if you don't do that too you're just shooting yourself in the foot enjoy not being able to digest what should be the most digestable thing on earth

>>19958234
no boiled potato is done in six minutes

>>19958244
k

>>19958253
I don't keep it whole. Cut it into cubes, drop into boiling water (with eggs, if making potato salad) then boil six minutes and drain. C'est vraiment délicieux.

>>19957931
A pressure cooker will obliterate these cunts in under 10 minutes. Hell they might end up as incoherent mush after that long.

>>19957931
you obviously lack the inca strength. you’d probably die if you were exposed to chuño

>>19958244
Actually, cooking a potato and cooling down polymerizes some of the carbohydrates into resistant starch. Some of it will still be present if you reheat it, and it's similar to fiber in that it isn't digestible by your own enzymes, it's fermented by bacteria in the colon.

>I essentially let women tell me how to behave
Wow this guy is actually such a fucking bitch.

>>19958326
Lol ok loser

>>19958025
Yeah bro besides the elk deer bear bison rams goats mountain lions wolves etc.

I am loving ck's newly found hatred for potatoes and the eaters of potatoes. I've been harping on it for years

>tastes like garbage raw
no

>>19958019
I cant think of any food that doesnt fit that description

>>19958226
It probably was aliens.
>You eat one part of plant
>Die horribly
>Lol lets keep trying till we find the part that doesn't kill us

>>19958388
Or in the case of the Andes mountain dwellers who domesticated the potato, the vicuña and guanaco would have been the main big game around, which they also managed to domesticate into alpacas & llamas. It should be noted that they domesticated the potato first, then the two camelids.

>>19958025
>no big animals
>in america
>native americans
Lmao

>>19957931
>he can't even grow potatoes

If you think eating potatoes are weird look at the cassava plant. Even the parts people eat have to be prepared right or it is outright poisonous.

The big bore gun the brits built for elephant, hippo and rhino is overkill in america.

>>19957931
>Everything about them is shouting "Don't eat me!"
fruit and vegetables don't want to be eaten.

>>19960245
Fruits evolved to be eaten, so seeds can be dispersed in a wider area.

>>19958025
Do your parents have any children who aren't retarded?

my mom would feed me raw potatoes while she was cutting them with salt on it, she would eat it too, whats it mean? we are cornish btw.

>>19960292
>believing the evolution meme in the current year
lol

>>19960300
I used to know a cute Cornish ginger from my last job who I pissed off by saying that pasties are better in Devon.
She's hated me ever since.

>>19960236
>overkill in america
Not against Americans.

>>19960407
These are barely even 500lb.

>>19960392
Explain to me why a plant would invest so much energy and resources into growing fruit then.

>>19958473
Milk probably.

>>19960414
That's just the off season weight. Right after Valentine's, when they spent October through mid February gorging on Halloween chocolates, national sundae day, Thanksgiving turkey, national cookie day (which is why Subway is offering footlong cookies this Monday), Hanukkah fried shit, Christmas cookies and ham, national all you can eat buffet day, Martin Luther King Day collards and fried chicken, groundhog's day ground hog, Valentine's chocolates and president's day fried macaroni and cheese, they'll be considerably larger.

God created it dat way so that human can live.

>>19957931
>Everything about them is shouting "Don't eat me!" yet people get pressing ahead until they became tasty
Living organism that doesn't want to get eaten? What a crazy world we live in.

>>19958326
>mocking how people look when you yourself look like an ugly mulatto thumb
i cant wait until this honorary gypsy is put in prison.

>>19960458
Why the hell do they taste so good if they don't want to get eaten? Next you're going to tell me that pigs don't want to give you their assmeat.

Damn, guess god created you to be retarded.

>>19960461
idk who that is but she ought to be ashamed of herself for mocking a child when she's got such a weak jawline and whatever the fuck causes her right eye (viewer's left) to bulge out like that. Not to mention those ears. Give this Dumbo-looking bitch a magic feather so she can fly away and never be heard from again.

>>19960485
Yes, retards are created and continue to exist just to annoy the likes of you.

>>19960439
Milk fits the description discovered that [these] were edible without desperation probably.

>>19958326

His head is shaped like the worst looking testicle ever. I don't think he has a right to judge.
