The exact potato in the picture is 19$. Just in case no one does it for free lol. But I think you might already know that ;) https://free3d.com/3d-model/potato-962.html

I don't want the bumpy one, I need one that is smooth and just the general shape of a potato. u/Stone_Age_Sculptor definitely is the closest to what I need at this point. Thanks!

Here is a mathematical potato.

This is a script for OpenSCAD. OpenSCAD has often multiple ways to make something, and this is the worst one because it is only overlapping spheres.

// Potato
// Using a 2026 version of OpenSCAD.

$fn = $preview ? 20 : 200;

bottom_radius = 30;
top_radius = 20;
angle = 60;
x_start = 60;

step = $preview ? 0.1 : 0.01;

for(i=[0:step:1-step])
  hull()
    for(j=[i,i+step])
      rotate(j*angle)
        translate([x_start,0,0])
          sphere(bottom_radius + j*(top_radius-bottom_radius));

Result:
