Baking Potatoes 19:36 - Oct 25 with 1244 views | Swanzay | Im guessing it must have been a bad harvest this year, but they have dramatically reduced in size in recent weeks, both at Asda and Aldi that I have noticed, hardly worth buying them, | | | | |

Are they sold by price per item then or by weight? | |

Baking Potatoes on 20:15 - Oct 25 with 1180 views | Cooperman | I agree with your point, this must have been climate related. I like a good jacket spud and my favourite topping is prawn and thousand island. | |

I normally proceed that with a few minutes in the microwave. | |

Baking Potatoes on 20:29 - Oct 25 with 1148 views | Jackfath | I'm wondering how big the OPs hands are. If he's got a hand like Jeremy Beadle the potatoes would seem large. However he could have hands like Robert Pershing Wadlow and the spuds would look like conkers in his palm. | |

Baking Potatoes on 20:32 - Oct 25 with 1144 views | Wingstandwood | I does a simple trick to avoid an overly dry jacket potato and to get a more enjoyable meal . Once cooked I get a folk and puncture loads holes of in it and spread a thin layer (out of the fridge for a while) of soft butter, Flora etc on top of the holes. I leave it for a short while to let the Butter, Flora etc melt and sink into the potato. Then I sprinkle salt on top, delicious! | |

Baking Potatoes on 20:33 - Oct 25 with 1144 views | BrynCartwright | I only had about 4 decent sized examples in my King Edward haul this year, out of about 150. The really dry start to the summer may be the reason. I like mine with some fried onions and mushrooms, baked beans and loads of grated Cheddar. | |

Next time you pop to Asda Gorseinon I would welcome your observations on this matter. I like a nice decent jacket potato with butter and cheese etc, hence my concern. | | | |

Baking Potatoes on 10:04 - Oct 26 with 928 views | jackrmee | Between the baking potato conspiracy and people turning in, or low and behold, walking across driveways, I can see Swansea is fast becoming a nightmare to endure. I'm so happy I'm the other side of Lougher bridge. My heart goes out to you guys though, it really does. Maybe the trust can do some sort of fundraiser? | |

Bombing the bridge would be a start but wouldn’t solve all the problems | |

Really cold dry winter followed by hot dry summer has led to shortages in certain produce that could last months. | |
