Another thing I notice is that more parents drive their kids to school instead of making them walk/ride bikes to school. My mother would have laughed or cuss me out if I asked her to give me a ride...

While I played plenty of video games, they didn't quite have the depth/breadth that they do now, so it's pretty easy to basically live off those as your sole entertainment source, if you want. Add in permanent communication channels with friends, and the all the primary purposes of physical activity are pretty well taken care of, aside from that silly/annoying 'work muscles and burn fat' part of it.
We just had a topic on here recently, some school districts now have strict requirements for how far kids are permitted to walk unattended, up through middle school? Maybe high school? I'm sure there's some reasonable limitations on distance walked for a young kid unattended (like 1st/2nd grade) but I regularly walked to/from school from 3rd onward unsupervised. Got into trouble a few times doing stuff I shouldn't have, but that's part of growing up imho.Another thing I notice is that more parents drive their kids to school instead of making them walk/ride bikes to school.

I started walking to school since I was 5 years old...We just had a topic on here recently, some school districts now have strict requirements for how far kids are permitted to walk unattended, up through middle school?

Can depend on the distance. I don't really remember 2nd and prior, but iirc we lived a ways out from whatever local elementary school there was. 3rd onward I could draw you a map though. It really wasn't a long slog.I started walking to school since I was 5 years old...
A 100% potato based diet would be hard on one's anus not to mention the toilet and plunger.
Simple carbs (white and yellow sugars and starches) and the ones that get you. Complex carbs are usually bundled with fiber, so they can't be metabolized very easily.I'm largely sedentary and complex carbohydrates are a large part of my diet. I also only weigh ~136 lb.
Actually that would really depend where the island is at. Also depending on your fishing skill, you could also eat fish as well.There is no single food that a person could survive on long term as no one food supplies every nutrient our bodies need. However, potatoes are actually very close. I think I read somewhere the minimum amount of natural foods that you could grow needed to survive long-term would be:
- white potatoes (for amino acids)
- sweet potatoes (for vitamins)
- Kale (for calcium)
So, if you're going to live on an island, take starts of those three for your crops.
My bread made with my blend of flour has nutrients."I require nutrients"
ACTUALLY, stop using the word actually when it's uncalled for, it is a retarded excuse for thought... and no, given the same potatoes, the smaller aren't worth more. Are you just plain stupid?

My I would never had imagine that a thread about humble potatoes would have gotten this heated.
Be careful, we don't want to cook so many tubers that they all rot before we can eat them.Yes, I'm steamed. Boiling over in anger. Roasted. Drenched with butter. Salted.
...
What was I saying?

So has anyone ever used potato flour?
How does that work out for you?I've only used it to thicken soups, stews and sauces/gravy.
It felt as though we were in P&N for a second...such uncalled for hostility.

I used to eat potato bread, but for some reason I don't see in stores very often.Just fine...never gets lumpy and I don't have to worry about my celiac afflicted dinner guests.
