what are just normal potatoes called?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

All potatoes have a name. I'm assuming you are talking about an Idaho or Russet potato. They are the most common.

They could be called sevreal things even though tyey are all the same thing:

White potatoes
Idaho potatoes
All purpose potatoes
Russet Potatoes

like french fry potatoes?

Russet.

I work at wendys, these are what our fries are made out of, and this is the type of potatoe I use to make homemade fries :)

The most typical potato is oblong in shape with an edible brown skin called "Russet"

I dunno...maybe...."potatoes"?

I mean if we called them "bananas" then what do we call bananas?
