When starchy foods are heated to high temperatures, they spontaneously form acrylamide, even though none was present in the raw ingredients.

But potatoes aren't edible unless they are heated to high temperatures. Does this mean we have to give up potatoes altogether?

You can eat them raw, they’re just not as good.
