When the snow and sleet hit a few weeks ago, I left a bag of potatoes out in my car. I'm sure your wondering why I did that. To be honest, it was all I could do to carry the other groceries up 3 flights of stairs and not fall down. So being extra exhausted from that fete, I didn't go back down to the car until 2 days later, when the snow and ice began to melt. There they were, many of them frozen and ruined. I found the one's that didn't have soft spots on them and put them in with others that I had in the crisper. These I let lay out a day or so to see if they would be ok to use. Yuck! What a mess I had trying to get rid of those ruined potatoes.
