@aroc3435, I totally agree, moderation is the key. I don't believe there is any reason not to enjoy the things we like. Life is short and we are entitled to have some fun and enjoy each day.

@aroc3435 You said it all! It boils down to some good common sense, and helping kids grow up and have new experiences! Grow up being the key here! LOL!!

We quit the sweet potato casserole because people really didn't care for it, and somehow marshmallows changes and tended to catch fire in the oven. . .

SO we would bake sweet potatoes, serve them HOT out of the oven and provide brown sugar, marshmallows, butter and maple syrup for all to dress their potatoes as they saw fit! Worked out great for us!

I didn't realize that a very slight spritz of oil on the outer skin of a potato could cause the diet police and nutrition nazis to regard this as some sort of poison.

Who eats sweet potato skins, anyway?

I have tried to like sweet potatoes , as I know they are good for you. I can eat them but, I just don't care to.

I do!! I love the skin. Try it; it's delicious! And, by the way, that little bit of oil on the outside is nothing compared to the tons of butter I put on my potato.
