Hello wonderful people.
Today's topic: a deep dive into a unique and totally random topic.
This thread is for distraction, hopefully fun and informative as well.
I'll try to post regular topics to just have fun with and random conversations to get us out of our heads and maybe learn something too.

What is everyone's favourite way to eat potato.
I love an Indian aloo curry. Southern style is my favourite.
I like to make potato curries but mine isnt properly authentic.
