I prefer sweet potato fries (cooked in olive oil, of course, NOT animal fat) because I have read health journals that state the overwhelming nutritional benefits of the sweet potato over the "useless calories" white potato. As matter of fact, the ONLY nutritional part of the white potato is the SKINS! Ironic isn't it - since most people peel and then throw away the skins.
I prefer a pre-game breakfast involving sweet potatoes in order to do "carbohydrate loading" before I head out to the GOLF course to play a solid 18 holes. I take some sweet potato fries in my golf car to munch on after about 12 holes in order to keep up my energy level. I also like to eat sweet potato fries after lifting weights or any heavy work exertion. I use GOLF for the mental relaxation (like meditation) and I use good nutrition like sweet potatoes for my energy requirements. Once you go to sweet potatoes you NEVER go back to "yucky, useless white potatoes!
