boiled, hashed or in a soup
mashed or baked or hasselback

we all like potatoes

those that have 'em
may not want 'em
and those that don't
want 'em badly
or not at all

yes we all like potatoes

smart or pretty; athletic or not
we all like potatoes

fried or roasted, maybe peeled
we all like potatoes
