Baking Potatoes 19:36 - Oct 25 with 1244 viewsSwanzay

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?

My observation comes from a 4 pack of jacket potatoes in both Aldi and Asda.

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.

Coat them with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, and whack them in the oven.

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

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.

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!

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.

I got two massive potatos from Lidl, got them home to find they wouldn't fit in the oven. Then my wife asked me why I'd bought such small pumpkins and when were we going to carve them.

I'm walking to Specsavers tomorrow.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

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.

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.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

My father in-law grow spuds. He’s had a great crop, we’ve had thousands of the things and some whoppers too. Skins aren’t the best this year though.

True story that.

The warm summer has given us smaller spuds but longer carrots… yes still talking about vegetables
