Weird Candy: Irish Potatoes
Looks like a potato, tastes like coconut. Weird.
Weird Candy: Irish Potatoes
Aside from a certain whiskey-soaked brunch, we're most likely going to be keeping our St. Patrick's Day festivities close to home and away from the green beer swilling masses. But don't get us wrong, we're certainly not haters. In fact, one of the things that we love about St. Patrick's Day in Philadelphia (no, not Finnigan's Wake) are the curious regional candies, Irish Potatoes. We've never spotted the little cinnamon sugar coated coconut cream spuds outside of Philly but we certainly do have a soft spot for 'em. Candy shaped like a potato? Who thinks this stuff up?
Over at Zagat Philly they've lined up an Irish Potato guide lining up all sorts of places to get your bizarro candy potato fix this St. Patrick's Day.
