This spud's for you

Tonight as I was making dinner Chris had the boys sitting on the kitchen counter. I have a basket there where I keep potatoes, apples and oranges (if we've got any). Zachary saw the potatoes and called them apples. He got very upset and cried to eat an "apple" but we didn't have any real apples in the basket. Finally to avoid a huge tantrum we decided to let him have it. He took one bite and was done. Then Alex had to have his turn. He actually ate two or three bites and made yummy noises before he gave up. Raw potatoes can't hurt them, can it?
