Potatoes have gotten a bad reputation as being high in calories. Unfortunately this just is simply not true.
Potatoes are not high calories, all the stuff people put on them (bacon, sour cream, butter, shredded cheese, etc.) and how they cook them (like turning them into french fries or potato chips by deep frying them) is what makes potatoes “high in calories”. So, if you enjoy eating potatoes with nothing on them or in recipes, then don’t feel so guilty.
Potatoes are actually quite low in calories.
