Spud Day in Shelley Idaho

potato christmas ornament

The Inge-Glas Potato Christmas ornament would make a great keepsake for Spud Day held in Shelley, Idaho September 17, 2011.

Locals there say you haven’t really experienced the thrill of victory till you’ve pulled your weight over mashed potatoes …….literally. For the contest, a cement mixer churns up thousands of pounds of instant spuds and they have a tug of war.

Potato - Po-TA-toe Tomato - To-MA-toe


Potato - Po-TA-Toe 109510 New for 2010

In the United States, potatoes have become one of the most widely consumed crops and thus have a variety of preparation methods and condiments. French fries and often hash browns are commonly found in typical American fast-food burger joints and cafeterias. One popular favorite involves a baked potato with cheddar cheese (or sour cream and chives) on top. *Wikidepia*




 Tomato To-MA-Toe 109910 New for 2010

Tomatoes have been designated the state vegetable of New Jersey. Arkansas took both sides by declaring the "South Arkansas Vine Ripe Pink Tomato" to be both the state fruit and the state vegetable in the same law, citing both its culinary and botanical classifications. In 2009, the state of Ohio passed a law making the tomato the state's official fruit. Tomato juice has been the official beverage of Ohio since 1965. *Wikidepia*
