Fab potatoes
I don't understand the bad reviews - I have been buying these for the past 2 years and have never had a bad batch. They are the the best potatoes in my view, happy to recommend!

Black Christmas
Bought these for Christmas lunch, but was lucky to salvage any. Most were black, sometimes all the way through. Very disappointed.
