Postcard of the Week: Idaho potatoes


Idaho is a beautiful state with tall mountains, pine forests, and lakes and streams for catching big ol' trout. But it also has a lot of farmland and just about everybody knows about the biggest crop: Yes, you are right -- it's potatoes. In the town of Blackfoot you can learn all about potatoes, see the world's largest potato chip and even eat a yummy potato for free. Billboards on the way into town advertise "Free Taters For Out-Of-Staters." So, being famous for its potatoes, you'd expect that there would be a selection of postcards related to spuds. The one pictured above is one of the most popular.
