They look like the purple potatoes on that page, not the all-blue ones, but having the flesh change to blue when fried was confusing. I had been expecting the all-blue potatoes as pictured there, since I don't think I'd heard of purple potatoes until now but I'd seen blue potatoes before (though I'd only heard them called "blue" rather than the apparently more specific "all blue").
I notice that it says purple potatoes are also called "blue" or "delta blue", so I guess my assumption that "purple potatoes must be an alternate name for blue potatoes" was partly right ... but not right enough.
Okay, I didn't get the kind of potatoes I thought I was getting, but it turns out I like the taste of purple potatoes as well. (Er ... not that this discovery is at all surprising, given how I feel about various other kinds of potatoes.)
Yeah, I was up visiting mekl and she had me pick some up so she could make curry or somesuch. She says their taste works well that way. Which is how I found out about them.
