I wont eat potatoes after they get eyes because they are creepy! lol

I found by keeping them in the fridge they will last weeks longer and also have you heard of green bags? If you eat a ton of fruits and veggies like I do, it's a must! They keep them fresher for a long time - which will prevent the eyes on your potatoes. I got some for christmas and they are fantastic!

You can still cook potatoes that have eyes, just cut them off - and never eat potatoes with a green tint because it has alkoloid (spelling) and can be dangerous!

I hardly eat them either.

we usually keep them in a dark place and it helps keep them from growing.

or you could just buy what you need and use it then.

Martha Stewart throws an apple in with the potatoes. I'm not sure how it does it but it works. I tried it and none of my potatoes grew eyes.

If you eat them before they grow eyes, they won't grow eyes.

Problem solved.

Apples give off a gas that will not let other friuts, vets, grow , i took a tree class , about 2 years ago , and we were grafting apple trees , and the inst, said to put the trees in a cold place , but make sure that apples or other fruits were not around them , because of the gas that would not let the grafts live, or grow ,
