Big And Wonky

Now that we're getting our potatoes from the milkman they come in a cardboard box with Wonky Spuds printed on the side. Ailz did some research and discovered that these are the rejects of the crisp making industry- which explains why they're all so big. Apparently crisp manufacturers can't be doing with small potatoes. I suppose their machines can't handle them- or can't handle them economically. Anyway, that how things stand- and it's always nice to learn something new.
