Like many of our citizens, the potato is an immigrant, coming from the Andes Mountains in South America.? Once within our borders, the potato quickly climbed to the pinnacle of success.? Every year, each of us consumes just over 36 pounds of potatoes in all forms ? from baked to potato chips, and in answer to the question "Do you want fries with that?"?
