Guest guest Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 You would be hard pressed to even fine a Yam in the U.S. All we get are sweet potatoes. And, if you had a yam you wouldn't want to eat it anyway. Luanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 WE sure do and I made the error of the sweet potatoes in a sweet potato pie instead of yams.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 -Same here in my city we get yellow and orange sweet potatoes and on occasion around the holidays yams. I prefer the orange sweet potatoes. The yellow are often stringy. The Yams often have very little flavor.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 When you say you get something special in your town or area, it would help us/me if I knew where that town/area was :-) -Same here in my city we get yellow and orange sweet potatoes and on occasion around the holidays yams.
