Looking like you have a run on carbs there.

If you're looking for the perfect speedy side that's as versatile as it
is nutritious, the baby sweet potato will satisfy all your culinary
needs. We recently discovered these tiny tubers at our local Trader
Joes store, just in time for fall and Thanksgiving menu-planning. Ever
since the popular grocer launched their Teeny Tiny Avocados earlier this
year, weve been totally hooked on miniature versions of our favorite
fruits and vegetables. These darling little spuds come in two-pound bags
and are about 3 to 4 inches long each, or about the size of your fist.
To give you a comparison point, a typical medium-sized sweet potato may
weigh between 6 and 8 ounces and can be up to 8 inches in length.

Purple, not poi purple, but still purple.
