Welcome to Like or Dislike, where you get to share how you really feel about ingredients from the pantry, ingredients I'm thinking about adding to my pantry, other seasonal foods, even favorite cooking gear.

With or without tiny marshmallows on top, are sweet potatoes your thing? I discovered one Thanksgiving a few years ago that I am the only person in my family who likes sweet potatoes at all (five pounds of leftover mashed sweet potatoes went right into the soup pot the next morning). I love crispy sweet potato fries dipped in curry mayonnaise the way a local restaurant serves them, and I also love them mashed, with spices and butter or lots of garlic. Sweet potatoes are slightly higher in fiber, and slightly lower on the glycemic index, than white baking potatoes, making them a slightly healthier choice when the potato craving hits.
