Can't believe BFL encourages potatoes though? Isn't this like the highest GI you can get? Doesn't that spike insulin?

Quality carbohydrates:
Potato
If I had to pick my favorite carbohydrate food, potatoes would be it. They're conveniently "nature made" in portion sizes-all you do is pick one that is approximately the size of your clinched fist.(see how simple that is?)
Potatoes go well with almost any protien portion, and they're portable, refrigeratable , and , contrary to popular belief, they taste great even without butter and sour cream. You can top them with a spoonful of salsa , ketchup, steak sauce--they're even great plain.
This is quoted right from the BFL book. |
