We do a lot of 0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:46.839 rice and potato. We do love our potato. 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:51.760 Yeah, I I'm just thinking potato myself. When you look 0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:54.800 at the Satiety Index of foods, which is foods ranked 0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:57.760 in terms of what is the most filling out there, 0:00:57.920 --> 0:00:59.920 potatoes are one of the most filling. 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:01.360 Food Yeah, they rank really hard. 0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:02.360 So I often. 0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:05.840 Suggest my clients enjoy a potato, a cooked potato stuff 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.840 because you know how, I don't know if they've got 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:11.319 these in Brisbane, but in Melbourne they've got spud bars 0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:14.200 and I just love them. So they don't have them 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:16.280 in Sydney or that I'm familiar with, but basically you 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:18.760 can go and get like your beautiful potato or sweet 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:22.000 potato and it's stuffed with like beans and you have 0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.320 a Mexican potato or a tuna morning potato, and I 0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:28.800 just think they're such a fantastic filling idea. Now I 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.680 don't cook them a lot, only because it's just not 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:33.480 something on my repertoire, but I'm a big fan and 0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:36.319 I recommend them frequently for my clients because when you 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:39.880 look at the overall carbohydrates compared to things like mash 0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:44.200 or fries or rice, you know they're relatively low, which 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.360 is contrary to popular opinion. But of course most people 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:50.120 eat the potatoes deep fried, and that's where the problem is. 0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:51.800 It's not the poor old potato itself. 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:52.520 So we do do it. 0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:56.120 But in response to that, in the market, there has 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.360 been a whole range of different potatoes, and you have 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.120 found the range to go through today, So it's a 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:03.240 really good chat. And we should also say potatoes are 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.000 really cost effective, particularly the moment when food is so expensive. 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.680 So the first one we've got is just a general 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:13.400 brushed so the brown general brown potatoes, the woolies brushed. 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:17.160 So two kilos, like two kilos only five dollars fifty 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:20.320 like that is so cost effective compared to our you 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:22.800 know what we're seeing out there with the other ranges 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.480 of vegetables at the moment being so very very expensive. 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:29.400 So I'm just looking at per serve on here, So 0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:32.280 is that saying a serve is fifty grams or one hundred. 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:33.000 It's just cut off a. 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:35.240 Little bit on my seventy five grams and a serf. 0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:37.880 And then that's the one hundred per hundred grams there, 0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:40.720 I see. Okay, so the serf. So how if we 0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:43.600 were describing a potato, and like a small potatoes about 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:44.399 one hundred. 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.440 Yeah, yeah, one hundred and one twenty yeah yeah. 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.440 So a big one of those jumbo potatoes would be 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:51.520 more like one fifty grams. But what you'll see from 0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:54.120 these numbers at seventy five grams pretty low. So it's 0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:56.560 seventy five gram potato, which would be a sort of 0:02:56.600 --> 0:03:02.880 three quarter size. It's got only fifty calories, one point 0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:06.600 seven grams of protein, no fat, and just less than 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:10.320 ten grams of carbohydrate. So what that tells me, Leanne 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:12.720 is that a big potato has got twenty grams of 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:15.880 carbohydrate all less. Now, if you keep in mind that 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:19.320 a cup of cooked rice has got forty five grams, 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:22.400 a little potato is not the problem here, particularly if 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:24.240 you enjoy it roasted with the jacket on and you're 0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.839 getting all the amazing dietary fiber of about two three 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:31.960 grams per serve. So that is my basic description of 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.600 why there's nothing wrong with potato. It's actually reasonably light overall, 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:36.040 isn't it. 0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:38.400 I love potatoes and fun fact, if you cook and 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.520 cool it so you you know, you roast some potatoes, 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:41.760 I'll put them in the fridge over an art and 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:43.600 use them in a salad the next day, you're getting 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:46.120 this beautiful resistance starch which feeds a good back to 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:48.280 you in your gut. So cooked and coot potatoes one 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:50.160 of my favorite things to add to salad sousi because 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:52.600 it's all for your gut health. But yeah, there's nothing 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.040 wrong with potatoes. And they're really villified in the media 0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:57.160 or you really people think, oh, you can't eat white potato, 0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.600 you have to have sweet potato. I don't really love 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.120 sleeper had of sussium all for the white potato. I mean, 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:04.120 I ate so much dietary fiber in my diet, and 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.080 you know, the GEI of my whole diet is quite low, 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.840 so I don't really even fuss about a sweet potato. 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.120 I'd much rather have a humble white potato for me. 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.360 It's it's a superfood. I absolutely love them. They're really 0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:15.680 high in fiber. But even per hundred grams if we 0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:17.920 compare them so because I'm just looking at the other 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:20.080 two products and we have the serving size is different. 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.960 So the serving size per one hundred grams two eighty 0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.359 one killer jeels, two point three grams of protein and 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:29.159 nearly thirteen grams of carbohydrates. It's still wonderful even one 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:31.520 hundred grams, because that's serving size at seventy five grams 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.840 is quite low. Like I definitely wouldn't have any seventy 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.520 five grams of potato. Io'd have a bit more. 0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:38.120 And I think the key thing nutratally, we know potatoes 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.960 are quite high in vitamin SEA. Actually, even though they're white, 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:42.880 which is a bit in your movie associate vitamin C 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:46.000 with brightly colored vegetables and fruits, they're quite high in 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.640 vitamin CEA. But you really, if you can want to 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.080 keep the jacket on, there's a lot of nutrition in 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.400 the jacket. It's going to really promote the full factor. 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:55.240 And you know it gives a bit of taste and 0:04:55.279 --> 0:04:58.320 texture to the potato. So as soon as you mash 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.760 it and you break down some of those stuff molecules, 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:04.320 the glycemic index will increase. So if you can enjoy 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:06.080 it with the skin, even if you are making chips 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.120 for the family, wash them and leave the skin on, 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:10.640 that's going to be much better for you. Now, the 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.920 second product we're going to look at is interesting because 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:14.840 people would be aware of this one because a few 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.440 years ago there was some groups in Australia that brought 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:19.800 out a lighter type of potato. So this is the 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:23.520 spud light product that you can find easily in coals 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:27.599 and woolies, and it's got twenty five percent less carbohydrate. 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:31.800 That's kind of the sales slogan. I've also noticed nowly 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:33.719 and they've got spud lights and then they've got also 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:37.600 spud mini, so they've got quite a range. And this 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.960 retail is at five dollars for one point five kilo, 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:45.480 so it's almost double, no not double, a little bit 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:50.279 more expensive than the plain potatoes, not overly significantly, and 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:53.159 they come in the bag. Now they've described as serving 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.400 sizes two hundred and fifty grams. Now I have to 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:58.240 say that is a lot of potato. It is a 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:00.240 lot of PTE one hundred and fifty grams, is it 0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:03.200 is a jumbo like certainly most clients I would see 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.000 I wouldn't be suggesting they have that much. I'd be 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:07.239 sort of going one maybe one fifty for a large 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:10.480 potato for lunch, for dinner, probably closer to one hundred. 0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:12.839 So I'm going to look at it per hundred grams 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.120 because I think TOE fifty is a massive serve, even 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:18.839 though it's a lighter version. So it's got compared to 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:22.159 two eighty one kilodules for the regular potato two hundred 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:26.400 and eight kilodels, so it's about, you know, not significant, 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:30.680 about third less of calories in that and as such, 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:33.840 well not as such, but it's got less protein, which 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:35.680 must be to do with the way they've grown because 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:37.520 this is a type of potatoes sort of grown in 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.880 a different way to reduce the overall carbohydrate load. And 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.679 then compared to our other potatoes twelve point nine grams 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:46.039 of carbohydrate, these have got eight point nine, so just 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:50.440 a little bit less dietary fiber, similar natural sodium occurring 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:54.080 very very low. So it's an interesting product because I 0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.240 know why they're out there, and I think, if anything, 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.400 they've brought some positive pr to potatoes because we're thinking, oh, 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:02.160 there's some hell the aversions. But to be honestly, and 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:05.440 I don't think the carbohydrate loading potatoes is so significant 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:07.400 that I would be encouraging my clients to have one 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:09.400 with twenty five percent few of carbohydrate. 0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:11.360 Now I wouldn't. I wouldn't. 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:14.200 It's an Australian product and Australian company, you know, we always 0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:16.560 want to promote them and support them. I think if 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.680 my clients are choosing to have those potatoes and they 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:21.640 like them, no problem. But I probably wouldn't go out 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:24.040 of my way to encourage clients to buy them, because 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.680 I think there's nothing wrong with the good old normal potato. 0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:29.640 I guess the benefit of some of these is that 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:31.680 as I said, the spud lights do have mini so 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:34.080 that can be really handy for salads and portion control, 0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:37.920 but I'm pretty happy with a good old normal potato. 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:38.720 What do you think. 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.160 I agree. I think there's absolutely nothing wrong with the normal, 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.760 you know, humble word potato. I think it's wonderful. But 0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:46.680 the third product I have chosen, SUSI, is one of 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:49.000 my favorites, and these ones I do recommend quite a 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:50.920 lot of my clients because I work with a volume 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.080 based eating approach for fat loss for my clients, so 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:55.000 they're eating lots of food, they're feeling nice and full, 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.160 so for me, the calories matter in the safe so 0:07:57.160 --> 0:08:00.240 they get to eat more potato for less calories. I 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:02.720 actually do recommend the third product that we have chosen, 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.880 But you're right, I don't think between the spud light 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:07.560 and the normal potato there's that much of a difference. 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:09.920 Maybe if you're on quite a tight energy budget, it 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:12.280 does allow you to eat a little bit more, but 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.320 it's not you know, it's not too significant. But I 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.040 do think our third products is if you want to 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:18.200 talk us through that, this is one that I recommended 0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:21.040 and I eat myself because I really do enjoy eating 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:22.400 lots more potato. Put it that way. 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.040 Yeah, and this is interesting actually for someone who doesn't 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:27.360 know a huge amount of about potatoes. So these are 0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:30.720 the Coals Baby Charisma potatoes in the packets, and I 0:08:30.800 --> 0:08:33.200 have to say, actually, when you go to buy to 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:36.040 buy potatoes because they can be so messy. I do 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:38.520 like these packets that they have in Coals because they're 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.600 really clean and easy to buy, which has nothing to 0:08:41.600 --> 0:08:44.880 do with the nutrition. Of course, good price point, you know, 0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:48.960 three dollars eighty per kilo. I have a little bit 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.560 more expensive actually because there are a bit more expensive 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.400 than the other two. So the first one was two 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:58.520 seventy five perkilo for the normal brush potatoes, three thirty 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:00.520 three for the spud Lights. And these ones are a 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:03.640 little bit more expensive at three eighty per kilo, so 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.520 not blowing the budget, but a little bit more expensive. 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:12.000 Australian grown which is important and certified low GI by 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:16.840 the Australian Glycimic Index Foundation. And they also got similar 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.720 to the spud Light, twenty percent five percent fewer carbs. 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:22.160 So if we look at the calories as you've described, 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:24.559 they've got just forty five calories per hundred grams or 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:27.120 one hundred and ninety kilodels, so that is less than 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:29.840 the other two varieties, two point five grams of protein, 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:32.240 which is actually more than the other two varieties, and 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.920 then ten point three grams of carbohydrate, which is a 0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:38.000 really nice It's slightly higher than the spud light, but 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:40.920 nothing significant, and it's sort of sitting in the middle. 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.800 But I guess the mix is that they've got both 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:47.600 the low GI carbohydrates and have been grown to have that. 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:49.600 But I think the other thing is in terms of 0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:52.640 taste and flavor, Charismas are known for their creamy taste. 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.120 They've got a very nice taste and texture, which is 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:56.839 perhaps why you like them, Is that right? 0:09:56.920 --> 0:09:59.160 Definitely, Yeah, I actually really love boasting them as well. 0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:01.320 But I love these because, you know, per hundred gram 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.840 so comparing like to like, we've got less calories, less carbohydrates, 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.199 we've got more dietary fiber, and we've got more protein 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.679 as well, so and you know, for our diabetics, are 0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:12.200 actually a really wonderful choice as well. So I really 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:13.880 like them. I think they're quite tasty. They do really 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:15.640 well if you're roasting them up and throwing them into 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.240 a salad. The next day if you're just going to 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:19.040 have them. I mean, they're not really in their jackets. 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:21.160 They're not like their brush potatoes that are coven and dirt. 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.240 They're you know, you don't really even have to wash them. Really, 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:25.520 they're sort of you know, they're pretty clean skinned because 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:27.640 I think they're just grown that way. So I really 0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:29.520 like to just have them as normal roast potatoes. I 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:31.200 just chop them up into little pieces, throw them in 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:33.320 the air fryer. They're quite small though, so they don't 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:35.640 do really well in terms of like chippies or wedges, 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:37.400 but they do really well just going to dice them 0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:38.959 up and throw them in the air fryer or use 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:40.720 them as a little bit of sort of chopped potato 0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:42.360 into a salad the next day. That's how I love 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.120 to use them, like cooked in cool potato and my 0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:45.079 salad for my gut health. 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:45.920 Yeah, that's a good tip. 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:48.200 It's always go when someone's actually use them, because I 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.520 think if I was summarizing the way that I would 0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:54.839 use potatoes smartly as part of a routine, part of 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.240 a weekly meal plant. As I said, I love them 0:10:57.360 --> 0:11:00.440 stuffed for lunches, whether it's cottage cheese, I love them 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.800 with red salmon, tuna, leftover mince or a bean dish 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:06.720 and then having that heated up, stuffed, and then with 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:08.440 a big salad on the side. It's one of the 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:11.720 most filling lunch choices you can have. And then I 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:16.000 think if you love things like mashed potato, because those 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:19.680 Charisma potatoes mash so beautifully because they are creamy, you 0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:22.280 could easily mash them with pre cook them, leave the 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.400 skin on, mash them, and then mix it with pumpkin, zucchini, 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.560 onion and some extra version olive oil, and you would 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:32.480 have the most delicious mash with very little carbohydrate loads 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:34.840 of vegetables. So you're getting all the taste and flavor 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:37.959 and texture of the potato, but you're also overall reducing 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:41.360 the carbohydrate load and still having a delicious mash. So, 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:44.160 you know, really versatile and at this point in time, 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:48.840 really cost effective way to use a vegetable product in 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:52.480 your weekly grocery budget while still enjoying your carbohydrates and 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:54.600 the taste and the texture and the full factor that 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:58.720 they offer, but absolutely keeping the carbohydrates controlled. So just 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:02.559 to reiterate why we have no issue with potato. If 0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:06.480 you have a cup of carbohydrate. If it's rice, pasta quinoir, 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:09.520 you're looking at at least thirty, if not closer to 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:13.360 forty to fifty grams of carbohydrate per single cup cooked. 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:15.480 And keep in mind that with pasta people will often 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:19.440 have double that easily. Now this potato, one potato at 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:22.360 one hundred gram sort of a reasonably sized potato has 0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:25.679 got a ten you know, a third a quarter of 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:28.800 that amount of carbohydrate in an entire potato. So the 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.040 message is there is absolutely nothing wrong with potatoes in general. 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:34.640 If you're looking for weight control or fat loss, I'd 0:12:34.640 --> 0:12:37.000 probably keep an eye on the size. If you're looking 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.120 at blood glucose control and happy to spend a little 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:43.200 bit more. The baby charismas have some benefit to them, 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:45.520 but in general, you can't go wrong with it. A 0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:47.920 spat and just keep your portions controlled and you'll be 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:50.400 on the right truck. It's a whole natural food and 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:53.360 it's officially one of the most satisfying, filling foods that 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:53.920 you can eat. 0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:54.200 Now. 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.040 As I said, where it goes wrong is where we 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.600 deep fry them, get rid of all their dietary fiber, 0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:00.920 and serve them with lashings of oil. That's the problem 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:04.120 with potatoes. It's not the jacket spud on your plate. 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:06.880 Yeah, deep by them seven with sour cream, bacon, topped 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:08.960 them with some fries, drowned and ketchup. 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:11.720 When I was young, left school, I used to work 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:14.040 at Sizzler. Is anyone listening who remembers Sizzler or you 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:16.640 can Eat Buffet And one of their menu items was 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:20.080 the stuffed potato and it was like enormous and that's 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:22.360 everything it had in it. It would have been about 0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:24.760 eight hundred calories, I reckon. So indeed, that's not the 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:28.000 way to have potatoes. You want a small potato enjoyed, 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:30.280 roasted with the jacket on, and you'll be on the 0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:30.760 right track. 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:32.880 Absolutely. And I want to point out, Suzi that those 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:35.559 baby Chris potatoes are actually only found in coals. The 0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:37.920 actually don't stock them in wolas, whereas the middle one 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:39.840 we talked about, the spud lights are found in both 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.240 of them. And all three products today that we went through, 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:45.280 the woolst brush potato, the spud lights and also the 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:48.600 coals baby Kruism potatoes, all three are actually grown in 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:51.280 Australia as well, which I think is really important, particularly 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:53.559 at the moment when the cost of things are so expensive, 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:56.319 getting sort of local and home grown is really important. 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:59.000 So we actually think that all three of these options 0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:01.839 that we've reviewed here wonderful. But if you are someone 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:04.640 who maybe has insulin resistance or as a diabetic, perhaps 0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:07.320 the last option is you know, could have some health 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:09.800 benefits for you. But actually all three of these products, 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:11.840 I think, probably for the first time ever, Suzie get 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.320 the green light and the thumbs up from the Nutrition Couch. 0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:15.480 Very well said I like it. 0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:17.480 And the other thing we will also say is that 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:20.600 none of these product segments are sponsored. If we ever 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:24.320 do do a sponsored review, it will be very clear, 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.760 so we're not being paid to endorse any of these products. 0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:29.400 This is leand and A's independent opinion on these products. 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:30.960 And as I said, if we ever do do a 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:35.520 sponsorship of a product review, will be very clear to 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:37.640 say that. All right, Well, that brings us to the 0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:40.120 end of the Nutrition Couch product review.
