Baked Potato In Oven Wrapped Foil
- Greengrocer’s baking potatoes are imported from the volcanic terrains of the Western United States. The volcanic ash present in these regions is rich in minerals and produces the most delicious and nutritious potato.
- Although a number of Canadian farmers have tried to mimic the volcanic effect by using similar potato seed and red clay soil, the taste and mineral composition of potatoes grown in volcanic soil cannot be replicated.
