bit late, and only a 2 according to my source (Tibet I guess is an Autonomous Region of China, and the Falkvinas are a British Overseas Territory :) )
Looking forward to Mrs. Schmenke's roast pork loin and mashed potatoes for dinner tonight :facelick: .
I believe the potatoes in our local grocery store are sourced from the U.S. (at least at this time of year), which is not surprising as the U.S. is one of the world’s top 10 spud-producing countries.
Name the other 9.
China Russia India Germany Ireland Mexico Spain France Belgium

Both of them big hits here.
Coming back to potatoes just checked our annual production. With about 3,5 mil. t, we're not in top 10.
Me too! It does sound good, doesn't it. Like a verbal caress. :)Quote:

Oh, sorry, were we growing tired of digging for the last answer for the potato question?

Carry on :dozey:
According to the link you provided (which includes 2010 as its latest date) unofficially has Bangladesh at #6 and the UK are #10. What's up with that? :confused: ;)Quote:

As to the current Q...
Not to sound presumptuous, er, I mean confident, but I believe Togo might be the last country we’re looking for, although I’m not sure of the official name (Togolese Repubic, or somesuch).
You did everything right. I simply confused myself. If I had not just glanced at it I would have seen the disparity for each country in that arena.Quote:
