Eat your Greens!

Saw this sign today in the lovely suburbs of zone 3. I guess here potatoes are considered green?

Is this a joke?  How can you pretend eating chips (fries) is eating your greens?!

  1. well, technically it’s a plant product. even health canada’s food guide calls it a vegetable. http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide-aliment/choose-choix/fruit/serving-portion_e.html

    it's kind of like saying tempura vegetables aren't vegetables either.

  2. I’m not disputing it’s a vegetable .. i’m disputing the classification “greens”. Greens are usually associated with the spinach, bok choy, kale, and other leafy green veggies.

    It’s the implication that potatoes are a healthy “green” that shocks me!

    ps. tempura-ed green zuchinni is awesome

  3. mmm … with melted cheese 😉
