I had a great conversation with the Michigan Potato Farmers Association about the challenges they and our larger agriculture community are facing. Michigan’s potato farmers play a vital role in feeding America and the world, and I’m proud to support policies that help them thrive! Fun fact: Michigan potatoes fill 1 out of every 4 bags of potato chips made in the U.S. 🥔

New research out of U of Toronto: When eaten together, carbs, protein and fat all stimulate satiety, signaling you to eat less. Not only should potatoes be the “go-to” for keeping kids full, they also deliver excellent nutritional benefits. @SpudSmartMag bit.ly/4dyRIJ2

Today is #NationalPotatoDay. Earlier this year, MSU potato breeder Dave Douches developed a new genetically engineered potato called Kal91.3. The potato can be stored in cool temperatures for long periods of time and chip at a high quality. READ: canr.msu.edu/news/msu-potato…
The Kal91.3 potato chipped at a high quality after being stored at 4 degrees Celsius for eight months.
