> Like I've been telling the wife for years-there's a difference between a sweet potato and a yam.

There is. And a sweet potato and a kumara. So far as I can tell, they are three separate things. Of the lot, I like the kumara best: very nice chopped into chips and deep-fried, served with sour cream -- great way to soak up excess beer and put on some calories for The Rugby.

I’ll definitely do a taste test! Thanks.
