My wife gave me a shopping list for LIDL as she often does on a Saturday. This time she asked me to get a couple of sweet potatoes, fairly small, and if they were a reasonable price. Since I've never bought a sweet potato in my life, I didn't know what to look for, or what condition they should be in.
I commented that as far as I knew they weren't around when I was a kid (70s and 80s). She comes from the south of USA where they are normal.
So, have sweet potatoes always been available in UK greengrocers?
