Yarrabyte’s gone missing again. Last seen behind the tapestry wool in Spotlight. No way of knowing if still there. Should we send out a search party?

Yes there is a potato shortage. Something to do with a drought in South Australia.
This explains why my local had no potatoes last time I was there, sweet potato was the only option. Love sweet potato but it is not a substitute!
I quite like sweet potatoes in rich dishes such as stews and curries.
Here’s my flex. I have 10 medium sized spuds ready for mash with my lamb chops for Sunday feast day.
How very rude of the universe to do this to me. This is one of the downsides to moving house, I would have had some from the garden if I hadn’t done that.
I haven’t been able to find seed potatoes , I was looking for 2 months
Given that Ballarat is right in the middle of Victoria’s Big Potato district, you should be able to find some in specialty shops. Try the local shop in Trentham or Ballan. Cost per kilo will be astronomical (at least $3 per kilo), but the spuds should be nice & fresh and mega delicious. Yes, seed potatoes are grown all around Buninyong and Ballan and Trentham for most of Vic & SA. Ditto horseradish and parsnips. Something to do with the height above sea level preventing some diseases from getting into the seed potatoes. Plus fairly reliable rainfall at zigacktly the right times of the year and a very reliable cold season.
