A Potato Fixation Observed

I've mentioned the 10 pound bags of conventional potatoes that Sprouts is selling for 67 cents this week. I'll take the high road and stick with paying more for organic, since potatoes grow in the ground and we eat the skin. But the guy ahead of me in the checkout line at Sprouts just now was buying 4 bags of these things. No matter how well you store them, what the heck does somebody do with 40 pounds of potatoes, short of running a soup kitchen??
