Where do you buy yams? I have heard/read that the things labeled as yams in
this country are really sweet potatoes. Mostly I do not like them no matter
what they are labeled. However a few weeks ago I got some sweet potatoes
with goat cheese. I did like them but only ate a tiny taste. I don't need
the carbs.
