Giant sweet potato!

I know they’re supposed to be better for you than regular potatoes, but I just don’t care for sweet potatoes. Not sure why. They’re kind of crumbly, and the sweetness seems cloying. I’ve tried dousing them in butter and that helps a little, but I’d still rather have a regular one.

Have you ever made sweet potato fries? Those are okay, but again, they just leave me really wanting the real thing. So I’m not sure it’s a good substitute, especially from a weight loss standpoint, if all it results in is me going out and buying a thing of regular fries.
