[Quiet Man Cometh]

Never heard of a garnet sweet potato...I think we call the light orange ones just sweet potatoes. If they're *really* orange, they are usually yams. Or that's what we call them.

I think the French thing might come from your proximity to Quebec there, Ari. Apparently we learn France French -more or less- over here, and people gripe about it because it's of hardly any use out east. I was excused from learning French in high school because my health made the course load too much work, so I mostly know what I read off of product labels.
