Did you know that you can have an ordinary russet potato SENT THROUGH THE MAIL?!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>\n

It’s true! I’m not making this up…there is a service called Mail a Spud<\/a> that will put postage stamps on a REAL potato and send it via United States Postal Service First Class mail to the United States destination of your choice!!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>\n

“No box. No envelope. Just a potato and some stamps.”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>\n

Can I eat the potato<\/a>?
\n<\/strong>We do not recommend you consume the potato after it has traveled across the country inside of trucks, planes, and postal service bags. It has touched a lot of germs by the time it arrives to the recipient.<\/p>\n

Aren’t you wasting food<\/a>?
\n<\/strong>No! Well yes, but each spud\u00a0shipped is bringing more awareness to the beauty of the potato.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a>\n

I<\/a>t’s only $10 to mail a potato<\/a>!!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alternately, you could buy five pounds of potatoes and have them shipped via Amazon<\/a>! Definitely not as fun though!!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>\n
