Whilst fruit-and-veg shopping at the organic market in Windsor this morning, it occured to me how many different types of potato are now available. Now I appreciate that each type has its own distinct quality and uses, but when I was growing up in Brisbane, there only ever seemed to be one type of potato. I'm not even sure which one it was - although I do know that the single type of lettuce we had is what's now known as iceberg.
