Dear Tsuh yang and Friends,

I guess these infidels had better stick to Idaho and Yukon Gold potatoes and
turnips!
You wondered what A. paeon. tastes like, it is available here in Florida in
cans at the Indian Grocery, called 'Suran' or Elephant yam. It USED to be
available as whole fresh tubers, but I have not seen them in ages. I hear
that it tastes like Dracontium tubers, which taste like a doughy Colocasia!

The Best,

Julius
