SWEET POTATO

on

      Sweet potatoes (scientific name: Ipomoea batatas) are a tuber of the morning glory family, which, unlike white potatoes, belongs to the potato family and is more closely related to tomatoes and tomato plants. Sweet potatoes are orange or yellow in color, but can also be white, red, or purple. Believe it or not, sweet potato leaves are edible too.

     Originally from the tropics of America, this versatile product is likely to date back to the present day, grown all over the world, with the main producers being China, Nigeria and Tanzania. In the United States, North Carolina grows the most sweet potatoes of any state.
