Answers:
You'll be okay!. You might get a slight stomach ache, but you probably won't!. It's true potatoes belong to a family of plants called "Nightshade", many of which are poisonous, but the reason the potato packet said, ":Don't eat raw" is because raw potatoes aren't very pleasant to eat, which you already know!. I'd throw this batch of potato wedges out, and cook the next batch longer than 15 minutes!. :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

A raw potato is delicious- just wash, peel, sprinkle with salt and enjoy!. Wow!. You make me hungry, haven't done that for a long time!.

People say when a potato is green it is poisenous, but I just peel them and get all the green off and cook them!. I haven't died yet!. HaHaWww@FoodAQ@Com

You can eat a raw frozen potato if you want, it'll taste horrible, but it ain't gonna kill ya!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
