potato

Description

A potato is a mute lump of carbohydrate unearthed from the soil. It obligingly dons any culinary costume—boiled, mashed, fried—like a fawning servant. Yet place it center stage on a plate, and it instantly struts about like it discovered fire itself, a peculiar master of its own praise.
