I've noticed a good bit of interest in sweet potatoes on the forum lately & Fireboy shared with me a link that just happened to answer the age old question about sweet potato versus yam. Thought I would share.

Difference between yam and sweet potato.

Thanks for that enlightenment. The number of times of have stood in our local store and tried to figure out which was the yam /sweet potato. They were next to each other but not clearly labelled. Now I know that neither one is a yam.

What I want to kow now, which is the more nutritious? I always bought the cheaper one as they were seldom the same price.
