They just barely fall into the "safe starch" category, but are usually shunned due to their higher glycemic index. The skin is considered off limits, of course. <br /><br />For those who are sensitive to starches or are trying to lose weight, then obviously white potatoes aren't a good choice and sweet potatoes would be a better option (no potatoes being the best option). <br /><br />Yes, tortilla chips are a great loss. I'm glad that I don't live in SoCal anymore, because I don't know if I'd be able to handle seeing chips and salsa everywhere without eating them. However, what helps me to not indulge is the fact that almost all corn (upwards of 85%) in the US is genetically modified. I absolutely will not eat GMO foods.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429040481329629212.post-29234773133550237282012-05-02T11:46:36.962-07:002012-05-02T11:46:36.962-07:00Happy birthday!
