Energy Saving

Not really energy saving but: I used to compost potatoes too small to peel but since cooking them quite often as oven chips which I chop up wedge like and cook with a little oil without peeling (except for any skin blemishes like scab), I now discard very few potatoes at all due to size.

My grandparents called the tiny spuds pig potatoes and fed them to the pig. Everyone had a pig in those days. And hens. That's why the great British breakfast is bacon and eggs. Bring back backyard pig-keeping, I say!

I used tor riddle potatoes at the farm and small ones were always known as pig potatoes!
