Agriculture Canada has unveiled some new cross-bred potato varieties. It was the comment from the producer that stood out for me:

Jeremy Rood, a producer from Grand Bend, Ont., said companies like his are always looking for potatoes that have a nice appearance and a high yield.

“We look for a potato that has no marks on it and almost looks artificially manufactured,” Mr. Rood said.
