Saga of a Potato: A boy potato and a girl potato had eyes for each other, And finally they got married and had a little sweet potato, which they called "Yam". Of course they wanted the best for Yam, so when it was time, they told her about the facts of life. They warned her about going out and getting half baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed and get a bad name for herself, like "Hot Potato", and end up with a bunch of Tater Tots! Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get her into the sack and make a rotten potato out of her! Now, on the other hand, she wouldn't stay at home and become a couch potato either. She would be sure to get plenty of exercise so as not to be skinny like her shoestring cousins. When she decided to go off to Europe, Mr. & Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out for the hard boiled guys from Ireland, and the greasy guys from France, called French Fries. And when Yam went out west, to watch out for the Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped………….. Yam said she would stay on the straight and narrow and would not associate with those high class Yukon Golds, or the ones from the other side of the tracks that say, "Frito Lay". Mr. & Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University) so that when she graduated she'd really be in the Chips. But in spite of all that they did for her, one day Yam came home and announced that she was going to marry Peter Mansbridge (our Canadian news announcer). Peter Mansbridge?!! --- Mr. & Mrs. Potato were very upset. They told Yam that she couldn't possibly marry Peter Mansbridge because he's ----- (Are you ready for this?) HE'S JUST A COMMON TATER!!! |

In 1985, Mr. Potato Head received four postal votes in the run for mayor of Boise, Idaho in the "most votes for Mr. Potato Head in a political campaign" as verified by Guinness World Records. |
