Care and Storage

"Nugget" potatoes’ delicate skin makes them highly perishable, so they should be stored in the refrigerator. Too much light will cause potatoes to turn green and develop a bitter taste

*Warning: Consumers should avoid eating potatoes that show signs of greening. Potatoes with pronounced greening should be discarded. If potatoes taste bitter or cause a burning sensation after cooking, do not consume them. (For further information please go the following web-site)
