Would you rather eat a totato (potato that tastes like a tomato) or a pomato (tomato that tastes like a potato)?

    Totato.

    My hatred of tomatoes isn’t based on their taste.

        Come back to be me when you’ve experienced the fine Dutch Cuisine of boiled potatoes, plain vegetables, and watery meat as the primary dish of your childhood. Occasionally the boiled potatoes are mixed with slightly undercooked potato slices, and potentially the spices kerrie or nutmeg may be added when the culinary level is exceptionally high that day.

        I know potatoes can be better, but unless they’re fried I honestly don’t want them in my house anymore

          Everything in that dish should have been seasoned and roasted instead of boiled

        It depends on raw or cooked.

        If both options are cooked and line up so

        A Totato has the texture of a coooked potato with the flavor of a cooked tomato, I’m 100% down

        Pomato though… Idk. I’m imaging a pomato sauce and I think it would just be mixed mashed potatoes and spaghetti ya know? Not repulsive, but not desirable.

        And if we’re talking eating it raw? Totato without question. Rough texture sure, but I’d get through it .

    To me it’s obviously the potato that tastes like tomato. I use tomatoes in so many dishes. Potatoes don’t taste nearly as good as a tomato. Heck, even fried potatoes need tomato: fries with ketchup!

      Absolutely. There’s no real use for the opposite.
