Answers: Whats the difference in taste and density when you mash them?

sweet potatoes are well............sweeter, have a better colour, smell better, are more interesting as for density i would say sweet potatoes are ligther because you can mash them up on their own and they are perfect, but white potatoes you have to add milk and marg etc, also if you boil sweet opotatoes in coconut milk with spinach it is the best!!!

sweet potatoes are sweet and white are more savory

Its hard to explain. sweet potatos have a different after taste to them and you'll only understand if you try it. you can even mix the two

For sweet potatoe is sweeter, best eaten when it is steam or barbecue. As for white potatoe, is better to add some sauces to enhance the taste.

I like white potatoes because you can add so many more different ingredients to them to make them taste good,compared to the sweet potato. The sweet potato can be kind of sickening sweet and I have never heard of anyone who puts chives or sour cream on their sweet potato.

I love white potatoes because I can add butter,sour cream,chives,etc and I never get tired of eating them! ;-)
