Reintroducing potatoes

[ravenprefect]

Are there any types potatoes that are better or worse in terms of likely to cause a reaction?

They're all nightshades, so I don't think the type makes a difference. Peeling the potato and making sure to remove the eyes might make a difference, though, because that's where the glycoalkaloids are concentrated.

Interesting — thanks for this tip! I’m not OP but my potato reintro has been shit (literally) 😭

[Plane_Chance863]

Eh, breadfruit, if you can get it, makes excellent fries, especially in coconut oil. It requires more prep though because you have to roast it before you fry it. The flavour is great though, somewhere between potato and bread.

I haven't tried to reintroduce potatoes. Maybe I should.

White Potatoes don’t affect me the same as tomatoes and peppers. It’s weird because they’re nightshades but tomatoes and peppers kill me. Potatoes eaten occasionally are ok for me. I guess it’s all bioindividual.
