Potatoes are a good natural source of both soluble and insoluble fiber.
Look for firm potatoes with no discoloration are the best. Discoloration (like small green patches) are a sign of toxic alkaloid, solanine.
Store in a cool, dry and dark place. They'll sprout under too much sunglight (not good).
Wash thoroughly before cooking.
