If you had a potato...

[halisme]

I would keep the it. You're always safe when you have a potato.

 

[snappydog]

Boil it, mash it, stick it in a stew. All at once.

Failing that, throw it at something. Never was a potato guy.

 

[Grouchy Imp_v1legacy]

Only one potato? Hmm, grate it up and make some leek and potato soup would be my choice.

Or freeze it and pitch it through Nigel Farage's window.

Spoiler: The camera never lies

I saw one day a comic about an alive bag of potato chips molested by a human hand because he was eating the chips.
Translation: The bag of chips like it.

So....something similar for science/magic/alchemy/summoning

I'd make leek and potato soup.

There's not too much you can do with a single potato. They work best when in groups.

 

[Wolf In A Bear Suit]

I'm Irish so I slowly reach for the lubricant. My people and this potato have a lot of catching up to do.

 

[kissthebottle]

I would take out my mandolin (the kitchen gadget, not the musical instrument), to make ultra thin slices (since it's only one potato, you gotta get mileage out of it). Drop it in the fryer, pull em out, sprinkle some Old Bay on it, or curry powder depending on what mood I'm in at the time, and eat the ever loving shit outta some chips (crisps?). I love making my own chips at home. It keeps me from eating an entire bag of store bought ones.

 

[rgrekejin]

I'd probably play Bloodborne on it.

PC Master Race 4 lyfe, yo.

 

[BeeGeenie]

As an Idahoan, I can state that there's pretty much no wrong answer.

Personally, I'd probably make some steak fries.

 

[KyuubiNoKitsune-Hime]

I'd slice it up in to wedges, deep fry it, dip the slices in ranch dressing, and eat them in decadent luxury... Then feel awful about my self.

 

[Addendum_Forthcoming]

Cut slices off it, add a sheen of egg white mixed with milk, and have a week's worth of night face masks. Works miracles if you have a skin tone that approaches the oily side of the spectrum.

Also cheaper and more readily available than avocado.

 

[Rebel_Raven]

Spoiler: If I had a poootaaatooo I'd potato in the mooooorrrning! Id potato in the eeeveeening! Or something.

<youtube=ihMMw0rnKz4>

Maybe cut the eyes out and plant them. I hear that grows more potatoes. Cook the rest somehow. Prolly fry, or what ever is easiest.

 

[Fijiman]

I would put little antennas on it, call it Spudnik, and launch that fucker into space!

 

[Drathnoxis]

I would dance with it while playing the potato song.
Then I would put it down and leave because why would I need a single potato? That does me no good. It's probably gross and damaged anyway, being the last one and all.

 

[Barbas]

I'd make leek and potato soup.

You could make a gnome hut. :/

OT: I'm so proud to see that, so far, none of my fellow Escapists have decided to weaponize it by sticking it in a potato rifle. I never got the twisted thinking behind that - what a ghastly and unwarranted end for a noble little spud.

 

[CrystalShadow]

Proceed to make passionate love with it... I've got your sour cream right here...

If people start staring, I'll just look them in the eye until I finish

Because that's what you do to assert dominance

There can be only one response to such an attempt at dominance!
Stare back, point, and laugh. ;p

Potato huh?

Hmm. make vodka.
Then proceed to throw it away, because vodka is disgusting... >_>

 

[sky14kemea]

I'd put googly eyes and a mustache on it, and let it guard my kitchen for a few days.

Then I'd probs make a baked potato with cheese and beans. Yum.

 

[Imperioratorex Caprae]

If I had a potato? dude I've got a whole bag. I can mash 'em, fry 'em, hash 'em, bake 'em, au gratin 'em... So many ways to make potatoes awesome...

 

[Barbas]

In this scenario, there can be only one. See, DvS has got the idea:

 

[Padwolf]

This is your life. This is your potato. What do you do with it?

My potato would be Hasselback style.

I think the question, Barbas, should be What CAN'T I do with it?

You can do anything with one of those babies, boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew. Hell I can try and make it fly. It can do everything and anything!

This was just an excuse to use that gif though, wasn't it? you and your gifs! They make me laugh too much
