I totally agree with you about people laughing at something they don't know about

It's funny.This story is treating sweet potatoes like they're tomatoes<br>Dear Arthur, sweet potatoes are a tuber. You do not cold storage them. You store them in a cool draw. Dark place not too dark because they'll start to sprout. But before you do that, you give them a twenty four hour sauna bath to bring up the sugar content<br>Again, if you're gonna write these stories, know what you're talking about. A sweet potato is a tropic plant. It comes from the tropics. It likes some dry sandy soil. It doesn't like overwatering, and it does not like the cold or the wet, and that's what you're doing to them
