You know how sometimes you forget about those last few potatoes in a bag? Once they sprout and shrivel, they're inedible. This spring I was heading to the "hot" compost pile and was ready to dump a handful of sprouted potatoes into it, but I changed my mind. I buried them in a mostly finished compost heap (no room in the garden). I have no idea what variety they are because the package said "yellow potatoes." Also good to note, they're organic potatoes. Conventional potatoes are sometimes treated with a chemical the prevents sprouting (which means they won't grow if you plant them). This is a delicious bonus!
