| − | The '''[[wikipedia:Potato|potato]]''' is a starchy tuberous crop from the plant ''Solarum tuberosum'' of the Solanaceae, or Nightshade family. It is the worlds fourth most popular crop—following rice, wheat and maize (corn). It is originally believed to have evolved in an area of southern Peru, spreading and diversifying into thousands of varieties, up to a 100 sometimes growing in a single valley. Used for thousands of years by native peoples, the potato was first found by Spanish explorers in the 1500s. It was later exported to Europe, the Americas and throughout the world. It became especially popular in areas where the soil was not rich enough for more traditional crops, such as Russia and Ireland. Today, however, Asia leads the market in potato production, with China the worlds leading exporter of potatoes, followed by India. Products such as potato chips, french fries, and mashed potatoes all come from the potato. When fermented, potatoes can be made into vodka. |

Call of Duty 2
Potatoes are used in "Red Army Training", the opening level of the Call of Duty 2 campaign. They are grenade substitutes used by the player and his fellow comrades to practice throwing grenades. Being nothing more than a normal potato, they do not cause any damage, nor do they explode like conventional hand grenades. If thrown at another character, they harmlessly bounce off without the NPC reacting at all. Sometimes if thrown at an enemy, they die.

Trivia
- If the player throws a potato at a German soldier in the level "Red Army Training", the German will be surprised and confused, and say "Kartoffeln?" which is German for 'potatoes?'. Also, if the player throws enough at the German, a potato will get stuck in his head.
- It's possible to kill the German prisoner being interrogated, with the potatoes. However, doing so will fail the mission.
