I like potato salad, but neither that kind cooked with sugar or sauce nor potato slice. I like KFC's potato,mmmmm... yummy!

Haha,xiangclzx.I think you have a little misunderstand about "sweet potato".It's not "potato".They are similar,but they are the two different food.Good luck

Most of chinese like sweet potatos.In the past,sweet potato is a very important staple food to help chinese to pass the famine,while now is a special snack in china especially welcomed by these yong girls because the roasted sweet potato is indeed attractive.More common chinese family use sweet potato to make porridge now.

I do eat sweet potato very often. My grandmother, who is a pure chinese and love sweet potatoes. She usually steam them and want the family to eat them. She kinda angry if nobody wanna eat it, she said that we should appreciate the food not to waste them, she then told us about the war she in. While the war, she ate only sweet potato, cause all the other foods were being given to the soldiers. Well, i guess i eat the sweet potato so she won't keep ringing my ears with the history.
Oh yeah, she even steam banana?! So, have you guys ever eat a steam banana before?

Yes.The elder is hard .They could only have sweet potatoes to eat that time as the war.So,I find that many of old don't like to eat it because they ate too much.And sweet potatoes always remind them of the hard times.So,they don't like to eat them now.
