Giant Potato Rolling Through Memphis

July 13, 2012

Normally you don’t see a big truck cruising down Madison Avenue in Midtown. But then this is not a normal truck. Nor is the load it is hauling.

“I thought as I was driving down the street and I thought that looks like a big potato. And I had to look and see. It is a potato. And I think where are the French fries. That’s what I was wanting really. French fries to go would be good right now,” truck driver John Yeaples said.

The Idaho Potato Commission

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.
