Last well
Have bought these often and have never had any bad ones. Even in the plastic bag they last over a week.

Always Amazed by Excellent Quality Produce
Perhaps we are just lucky, but always have been of highest quality and freshness. Never mouldy or rotten. Lasts for a long time - well over a week in a breathable fabric bag in a dark cupboard. Even after this time, no black bits, furry bits, green or shoots.

Half rotten
I had bought only once before, and the potatos were ok, but this time I had to throw away half of them because they were black inside.... I can not say if it's only bad luck, but I'm really disappointed

Disgusting
This is the second batch I have received where the majority of the potatoes have been mouldy and the rest have tasted disgusting after they have been cooked, I'm not sure if they have changed their supplier as they were fine before.
