I say, I find such contemptible materialistic accolades to be petty compensation for affiliate posters on this felicitous board to meet the randomly occurring whims of your, as of yet, undefined approval.

Why potatoes?

They are so high glycemic.

How about something more healthful, like edamame

Because NSers are tubers. We grow underground, unknown to society, full of starch and slightly poisonous.
