Potatoes Are Now Whole30-Approved (and Here’s Why)

"It turns out, the Whole30 team never really had a thing against white potatoes in and of themselves — at least, not once they dropped their initial Paleo framework. White potatoes are great! There is a reason they are a global staple: They are good sources of potassium, Vitamin C, and fiber (eat the skin). White potatoes have gotten a bad rap in recent years, but as the Washington Post has pointed out, plenty of cultures — Scandinavians, Russians, Irish, and Peruvians — have depended on white potatoes for centuries and have managed to avoid nutritional ruin.

As explained in a post announcing the good news, “white potatoes are a whole, real, 
nutrient-dense food! It doesn’t make logical sense to leave them out while other
carb-dense foods like taro, yuca, or sweet potato are allowed.” Amen."
