The latest infomercial must have is the potato glove. I mean if you get it
your life will change forever. It's an abrasive glove that you use to grind
off the potato skin. We used those many years ago when I worked food
service. They work but man do your hands get sore. Back in the day when
I was on tater shift we could do about 6 hundred pounds in a 2 hour shift,
me and one other person.

And yet still I like potatoes.
