I don't have to be that concerned about my blood sugar at this point,
but hubby watches his closely and potatoes cause his to rise much more
so than bananas ever do.

I also eat potatoes, but like you I do prefer bananas on cereal, etc.
(LOL) and when my Potassium was low, my doctor suggested eating a banana
daily for a excellent source, and didn't mention potatoes, but I do know
they are a good source of Potassium, and I do eat them too. I especially
like baked sweet potatoes with a little butter, salt and pepper.
