Sweet potatoes have a pinkish skin and are a very popular crop with most families growing their own.
They are not really related to the potato. They are usually peeled, chopped into chunks, boiled for twenty minutes then mashed and eaten like ordinary potatoes. In the UK sweet potatoes can be bought from most large supermarkets. Try cooking and eating them, they can be cooked in much the same way as the more usual potatoes that we use. The sweet potato is related to the climber 'Morning Glory' and is itself a strong climber unlike our conventional potatoes.
