Question

Can I Use Soft Potatoes

Can I use potatoes that are too old and are a little soft?

Answer

If they don’t have an offensive smell and the softness is from losing some of the moisture, you are probably fine. However, if in doubt, throw them out. A case of 50 pounds of potatoes that costs $10.00 is pretty inexpensive so you should not risk it.
