LAS VEGAS (FOX5) –
A giant potato is making its way to Las Vegas Monday to raise awareness for Meals on Wheels.
The Great Big Idaho Potato Truck is on a seven-month journey across America to celebrate the Idaho PotatoCommission’s 75th anniversary.
A 48-foot-long flatbed trailer carries the 28-foot by 12-foot wide creation.
The potato is a larger-than-life replica of a vintage Idaho potato postcard.

Established in 1937, the Idaho Potato Commission (IPC) is a state agency that is responsible for promoting and protecting the famous “Grown in Idaho®” seal, a federally registered trademark that assures consumers they are purchasing genuine, top-quality Idaho® potatoes. Idaho’s ideal growing conditions, including rich, volcanic soil, climate and irrigation differentiate Idaho® potatoes from potatoes grown in other states.
