Ring, Ring, “Hello, Is this Slim Potatohead? “Yes, it is.” “This is National Geographic calling. We are interested in your impeccable photography, as well as your ability to narrate, always adding humor.” Slim, you outdid yourself again. Those shots of the quaint little boating harbor, and the rocks and moss, were wonderful! I literally can’t wait for your next video!! 🙏🏼💔🐾💔🙏🏼
I recently had some purple potatoes... yes !! ...purple potatoes. They tastes just like the white ones... Not sure where they are indigenous to, but very good & good for you! 1st time eating these. On another note... I have noticed how much clearer & brighter your videos are. Is this your new camera? Enjoy your videos!
Growing up in North Carolina we and my grandfather planted and harvested potatoes for our families .We used to store them in what we called the potato shack which was an little old storage building. We had a bin with a rabbit wire bottom for ventilation and we placed old rugs on top that were not fit for the house to insulate them over the winter. By the time potatoe planting season came back around some of the potatoes had softened and started to rot. We picked the remainder which had grown some decent sprouts out of the eyes and cut them into sections each with a sprout and planted them sprout up for another harvest
You do a terrific job showing the beauty of Canada! My dad was from the US but his family came from Nova Scotia and Quebec. We grew potatoes every year, tons of them and kept them in bins in the cellar for the winter...it was in his Canadian blood I guess.
Love PEI . Visited on a work trip in 2017. Hoped to return this year. Ran out of time. Next year for sure. I actually was working on potato planters in 2017.
Really creative displays at the museum on PEI! I once knew a man here in Georgia who had a son named “Tater.” Apparently, when he was a newborn he looked just like a “Tater.”
I bought bottom land years ago & the soil was black & rich.. I had 7 acres which I farmed... The 1st yr I planted a patch of potato's & they were big & plentiful.. As organic veggies gained popularity , I had a local store chain contact me because my uncle supplied green beans for the 3 stores.. So I planted a full acre to start... Being organic , I could'nt use pesticides or weed killer.. So , I & my girls went out everyday & removed potato bugs & pulled any weeds.. The crop was fantastic... But it was the last time I grew them for the public... Its far too time consuming & potato's , at that time , didnt pay near enough for all the labor... Still today I can buy potato's way cheaper than I can grow them ... But, I know my potato's are not GMO or full of pesticides ...
This was really interesting! I regret that I have taken potatoes for granted, but I pledge to change my wicked ways and take time to smell the potatoes. Love those fields of Goldenrod and Queen Anne's Lace, too. Thanks for all your time and effort, Slim. Be well.
I think we were touring the east side of PEI at the same time! Enjoyed seeing Neufrage's bridge----the tuna capital of Canada. Also loved seeing East Point lighthours and also the ferry to the Magdelan Islands coming into Rollo Bay harbour. Excellent fries are also to be found at a little stand in the Canadian Tire parking lot in Charlottetown. I believe it is Mike's but don't quote me. lol Great video, Slim. It is totally fitting that you, a Potatohead, should go in search of the best potato. Glad you found it on PEI.
I just saw a recipe that fits the theme of this video - which looks delicious by the way. Sliced about 3-4mm thick, potatoes are layered with swiss cheese and vegan bacon bits, garlic 'butter' and a little seasoning in cups of muffin tins. Baked under foil and then a bit more cheese after the foil removal and broiled. Yum. And ditto to @croberts709 comment about how beautifully you showcase all of North America but this was lovely.
Tator, What colorful & artistic scenery and views! Potatoes are my favorite! Had them for supper tonight but mine were home grown! Yes, family campgrounds are more for families with kids who need to entertain them! I love state & national parks more, the natural environment you cannot beat it! Loved your tator taste test (say that 3xs fast)....it was cute! ❤ 🥔🍟🍺
That potato museum tour was really a treat, thank you! I live in a town where a Century plus ago, the potato was the first cash crop of choice after the lumberjacks moved on to another forest. As recently as 70 years ago, the potato harvests stopped becoming a thing for some reason or another, and the area remained as traditional farm country. Seeing some of that machinery, just reminded me of some of the farmers who still had that equipment, but just left to nature.
This is one of my favorite videos in a long time. I love your travels, even if it’s just a tater hunt! You have such a gift. Great videography and your storylines are always well thought out and spoken. I’m a total fan! ❤TN Nana
Growing up in Southern California by the beach, and being stationed at Fort Monroe of of the Chesapeake, I definitely can understand the lore of living in PEI. ✌️
My wife will tell you to cook the carrots a few minutes ahead of the other ingredients because they are more denser that way everything will cook even together. She makes slot of soups. Good video slim
Exploring your heritage can be fun. Don't you feel a bit cannibalistic, Slim? I will say your potato vegetable dinner looked to be the best thing I have ever seen you cook. Safe travels, Slim. Some day, I hope you get to explore the Great Plains.
Hi again my friend. Great potato adventure! That plate of beans, potatoes,corn and carrots made me hungry. The scenery is very beautiful. Your vids always make me want to look for a small camper and hit the road. I already have the Jeep, I just retired, so now starts the adventure of looking for that perfect camper. 😎
Hey Slim! We enjoyed your video. We grow sweet potatoes around here. Sweet potatoes aren’t related to Irish potatoes but are native to the tropics. We have found that they grow very well in the south. After they are dug, they are cured in a warm barn for about two weeks. All of that flavorless starch turns to a wonderful sweetness that can’t be beat. There are some varieties that do produce in colder climates and possibly even Canada.
Loved the potato museum footage.+ you included the perfect background fiddle music. That museum definitely topped the Idaho museum with all the antique farm implements & equipment. Tsk, tsk - should have left the skin on the potatoes B4 boiling or baking any potato, PEI or Idaho. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.
I was interested in learning that the toll for the bridge was, wait for it, $50. Thought others might find it interesting. At least it's only charged in one direction -- leaving, of course.
I was there 5 years ago and the internet I had counted on at my lodging was worthless. I was spending down my Canadian cash before driving back to the states. Had a strong feeling I needed to be 100% sure of possible tolls so ended up driving to the bridge a day early just in case. Glad I did otherwise I wouldn't have saved that much cash!
Great idea oatmeal on paper plate. I drink organic instant coffee it’s great . I feel like I’m watching relaxing nature video . I love yellow potatoes with cultured butter😊
Great video and informative for those of us a bit too fragile and far away. And I do appreciate the 60p video as it's much better on a big screen when any moving shots are taken. No blur. Good job Slim.
Who knew there were TWO Potato museums on the same continent? Slim, you are a great story teller, photographer/videographer and you deserve some kind of Canadian Honor as an Ambassador of your country, or at least a PEI award for the best Potatohead. The music was perfect for honoring a spud. Now we can honestly say you are full of starch!
Good afternoon from Buescher State Park TX, your videos are never boring. They're filled with interesting places, topics, adventures,and loaded with scenic locations. I tip my hat to you, Mr. Slim. Stay safe and happy travels 😎
A day with a new Slim Potatohead video is a good day! Thanks for this! As always, entertaining AND informative. And beautifully shot and mixed. Cheers!
I planted some spud eyes in a couple of pots on my deck this summer, here in Alberta. One got drowned by an overflowing gutter during one of our downpours but the other is flourishing. Can't wait to see what we got once the tops die back. How did we survive before we had potatoes? Turnips I'm guessing, but nothing beats a basic spud. Num num. 😊👌🤗 Thanks Slim, that was fun. (Taber 🌽😉)
Hi Slim nice place beautiful scenery, the tranquility of the ocean, the tour of the potato museum was amazing learn a lot about the good old potato, your PEI dinner looks delicious, thanks for sharing stay safe
SHEESH, Slim, you bring back wonderful memories of my childhood. My dad grew ‘em. Mom cooked ‘em. I was the oldest of six kids and we picked ‘em up and helped where we could. Yummy!!! I agree, fresh is better. From northern Kentucky.
Your potato and veggie dinner at your campsite was mouth watering. Looked so good! As an American, I must agree that Idaho potatoes are the best altho I've never tasted a PEI potato. What an interesting trip and educational too.Looked like a fun time.
I have crossed that bridge many many times to visit my friend DAISY in Tignish, PEI When you walk out to the end of that pointed piece of land for a couple of seconds there oh, I was dizzy. lol Only in PEI that one can find “wheat beer”….. I think?? There’s a small grocery store in Tignish, called CO OP, such friendly people / staff. Thank you Slim for taking me on your trip to PEI, you have brought back many many fond memories of MY trips to the Island.
I just love your content! I was in Wisconsin for a great deal of the summer, your wildflowers here were very comforting ❤️ reminds me of my great summer!
Incredible video slim. I especially enjoy when you add previously unseen footage to new videos. I wonder whatelse you could pull out the vault. By the way were you ever able to recover all the data from the computer that was lost????? And thats the best meal ive ever seen you make lololo
Back in the '60s i was a child growing up in idaho. Now my dad could fix anything and that included tvs . A lot of people would call us up for him to come fix their tv, but many couldnt pay for it so he would just do it for free. My mom didnt like that tho and she let him know that he was providing a service and should be compensated for it. Lets face it, a lot of people took advantage of his good nature. So he would still go out but now he would normally bring back some money for his service. One day he went out to a farm to fix a tv. Took him a long time to come home. So when he did , he came in all sad, and told my mom he didnt have money. She was getting ready to scold him and he ran out to the car and brought in a huge gunny sack and put it in front of my mom. She opened it and pulled out HUGE russet baking potatoes. She was beyond happy and said that those were better than money any day.
Nice vid, seemed luck a delicious trip. I planted 3lbs of seed potatoes in the spring and got 40lbs from them a couple weeks ago. You are right, fresh potatoes are so much tastier.
once again Slim you have helped me decide on a new camping item I'd like to add to my gear, and you didn't even know it... I was just sitting here thinking b4 I watched this vid that maybe I ought to invest in a new one burner propane stove.... my 2 burner takes up so much room in my teardrop and I think I rarely use both burners at one time and along comes Slim with his one burner Coleman stove... thanks for helping me decide and loved this vid.. .your photography and narration is so calming.. and who can't use calm these days....
Awesome video Slim! For some strange reason I am really craving a twice baked potato , or mashed potato , maybe some crunchy french fries or home fries with ham and eggs! Thanks for taking us along on this fun adventure Slim! Thumbs UP! 👍🥔🍟
Great narration of the video,,,👍 I have only eaten Idaho potatoes,, love them.. I enjoy your videos,, Canada is so beautiful! Hopefully no fires where you are at... Thank you Slim for sharing your videos,, and loved this trip.. ♥
Greetings Slim, While on your international quest for the best potato, you overlooked the best potatoes in the entire known universe and they're almost under your nose right next door in Maine! Two of those P>E>I tasters even have Maine names, such as the Sebago Being that it's now February, this gives you plenty of time to plan your future quest for the greatest tater of all. it very well could be found right over the border in Aroostook county Maine. BTW, I've had the pleasure of visiting P.E.I and it's an absolute gem of an island with it's greens and reds , the blue of the sea, and wonderful people. Happy Trails
Can't be a tater hater! You can have baked taters. You can have mashed taters. You can have scalloped taters. You can have tater cakes. You can have French fried taters. You can have tater chips. You can have tater soup. You can have boiled taters. You can have tater tots. You can have hash brown taters. You can have tater stix.....yes, those wonderful taters. Breakfast taters, lunch taters, annnd dinner taters.🥔😎👍
Great video Slim! I live in NS and grow my own potatoes every year. However, they certainly can't compare to PEI potatoes! That was a great trip and you are correct that it is a very touristy island! Covered Bridge are the best potatoes chips!!
Thank you, Mr. Potatohead. I am on my way to Idaho for a family wedding and will be traveling and camping in my Honda Odyssey across the northern tier of states for a month. My route takes me through Blackfoot,, ID and I am looking forward to a baked potato and everything on it!
Prince Edward Island😲 And just casually mentioned "Green gables"! I want to see it, and everything mentioned in the books. Except from that 🤔, it looked like a cosy trip, and nice tent!
Enjoy your potatoes with the potato chips Slim! Thanks for taking us along! My favorite potato chips are "Lays." Did you know chips are a great way to start a camp fire due to the oil in the chips? They do work. :)
"Although it usually takes 15 minutes to cross, I was in a hurry. So I sped up the video."

I gotta admit, I was a little disappointed the PEI Potato Museum didn't have a giant Slim Potatohead as its mascot. Great video as always though.

Great memories. I planted potatoes with my dad in Texas.
I planted potatoes front ones gone to sprout in my garden in London uk, best potatoes I ever tasted …ah memories.
Potatoes are one of the wonders of food. They can be used in so many different ways.
Plenty of great potatoes come from the great state of Idaho. 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔 Peace, Slim.✌️🇺🇸🇨🇦✌️
You do a terrific job showing the beauty of Canada! My dad was from the US but his family came from Nova Scotia and Quebec. We grew potatoes every year, tons of them and kept them in bins in the cellar for the winter...it was in his Canadian blood I guess.
Hello Slim I love Canada. I have family on Vancouver Island. I live in Birmingham UK.
I raised some Yukon Gold potatoes in my planter box in southern Wisconsin, first time. They were delicious! I am also a major potato fan.
Sure hope you have real butter-
Us Badgers knows what’s best !
Thanks for the spudtacular tour of the PEI!
Thank you Slim…the photography was beautiful
Love PEI . Visited on a work trip in 2017. Hoped to return this year. Ran out of time. Next year for sure. I actually was working on potato planters in 2017.
You can't use margarine on a potato!
It has to be pure butter!!❤❤😂😂
Real butter & or Sour Cream

Beautiful PEI! Thanks for the tour. And those fries look delicious!
My mom grew up in a small town in NB and always called them PaTuts so now I still lovingly call them , PaTuts!
Lol so does our family, love em any way you can cook em.

Loved PEI! Seriously considered moving there.

Felt like I was there testing out the potatoes!😂 I love tent camping when it's raining. The sound is wonderful.
Exploring your heritage can be fun. Don't you feel a bit cannibalistic, Slim? I will say your potato vegetable dinner looked to be the best thing I have ever seen you cook. Safe travels, Slim. Some day, I hope you get to explore the Great Plains.

What a fun video. No dud spuds, just greater potatoes.
I remember when the mr. Potato head toy came out and we had to use a real Potato and you pushed the dangerous pointy accessories into the Potato.
This was great fun Slim. My husband a big fan of all things potato so he loved it too!
Slim, I'm surprised you don't have a potato peeler sheath on your belt! Thanks for a fun video.
Made me hungry, Slim.
Shame on you!😉
Loved the video. Beautiful scenery.
Good video Slim, butter is a must on baked potatoes, but margarine is second best.
Well this was a fun video...with beautiful scenery and fun information. I enjoyed it.👍😁
Great video and informative for those of us a bit too fragile and far away. And I do appreciate the 60p video as it's much better on a big screen when any moving shots are taken. No blur. Good job Slim.
As a full time mobile viewer it means back to 480 as it eats bandwidth like crazy....
I’ve never seen Green beans that dark Green and I’ve ate a lot of fresh Green beans. Those were like kale Green lol.

There is a 3rd one as well in Centreville , NB Canada!
Another discovery, just viewed this older video. It's so beautifully filmed and narrated...thank you Slim!

Slim, your a good spud...thanks for this one, it was fun
My cousin Bob and his son Roger farm 3,000 acres in Blackfoot, Idaho. They grow the best potatoes in the country!! 😎😎😎🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔
SHEESH, Slim, you bring back wonderful memories of my childhood. My dad grew ‘em. Mom cooked ‘em. I was the oldest of six kids and we picked ‘em up and helped where we could. Yummy!!! I agree, fresh is better. From northern Kentucky.

You finally made it here to PEI! Enjoyed the video, wish I could have told you about some “ secret” places. 😁✌️. Can’t see it all. …
Slim, you always mention that you aren't a foodie BUT that plate you made looked sensational!
You made me very hungry for a potato yum Slim 😊.
I love the history of the places we visit. You do a good job of reminding us of our past.
I have crossed that bridge many many times to visit my friend DAISY in Tignish, PEI
When you walk out to the end of that pointed piece of land for a couple of seconds there oh, I was dizzy. lol
Only in PEI that one can find “wheat beer”….. I think??
There’s a small grocery store in Tignish, called CO OP, such friendly people / staff.
Thank you Slim for taking me on your trip to PEI, you have brought back many many fond memories of MY trips to the Island.
Oh oh, sorry ...hope you didn't chuck your potatoes! SP
Ha ha, almost,
I can wheat beer locally and in many varieties from different micro breweries. Then again, I'm in Kansas the Wheat State.
I love the overdubbed crunching! Very relaxing video Slim!!
I just love your content! I was in Wisconsin for a great deal of the summer, your wildflowers here were very comforting ❤️ reminds me of my great summer!
Awesome. Back to where you started. Backpack and tent. Happy trails
A potato is a humble and delicious food that has nothing to prove. Thanks for the trip to PEI. I really enjoyed it!
Even learning about PEI potatoes is interesting when you do it Slim!
Incredible video slim. I especially enjoy when you add previously unseen footage to new videos. I wonder whatelse you could pull out the vault. By the way were you ever able to recover all the data from the computer that was lost?????
And thats the best meal ive ever seen you make lololo
I asked Slim that same question.
He said, "No".

Yes we lived in Southern BC close to the Idaho border and loved an Idaho potato, huge and delicious.
Nice vid, seemed luck a delicious trip. I planted 3lbs of seed potatoes in the spring and got 40lbs from them a couple weeks ago. You are right, fresh potatoes are so much tastier.
Oh, boy! Now I want some good French fries! Great video, as always. Love your channel.
Slim this is so beautiful. I have wanted to visit PEI.
Beautiful area! The ground color was fascinating! Interesting spud comparison too.
once again Slim you have helped me decide on a new camping item I'd like to add to my gear, and you didn't even know it... I was just sitting here thinking b4 I watched this vid that maybe I ought to invest in a new one burner propane stove.... my 2 burner takes up so much room in my teardrop and I think I rarely use both burners at one time and along comes Slim with his one burner Coleman stove... thanks for helping me decide and loved this vid.. .your photography and narration is so calming.. and who can't use calm these days....
I enjoy these trips "we" take to specialty sites...thank you! That was fun!
Awesome video Slim! For some strange reason I am really craving a twice baked potato , or mashed potato , maybe some crunchy french fries or home fries with ham and eggs! Thanks for taking us along on this fun adventure Slim! Thumbs UP! 👍🥔🍟
Great narration of the video,,,👍 I have only eaten Idaho potatoes,, love them.. I enjoy your videos,, Canada is so beautiful! Hopefully no fires where you are at... Thank you Slim for sharing your videos,, and loved this trip.. ♥
Slim, you forgot to give your final verdict between the Idaho and fresh PEI potatoes. As Admiral Nimitz said to Admiral Halsey, "The world wonders."
I love PEI, especially the lobsters and seafood stews…
Greetings Slim, While on your international quest for the best potato, you overlooked the best potatoes in the entire known universe and they're almost under your nose right next door in Maine! Two of those P>E>I tasters even have Maine names, such as the Sebago
Being that it's now February, this gives you plenty of time to plan your future quest for the greatest tater of all. it very well could be found right over the border in Aroostook county Maine. BTW, I've had the pleasure of visiting P.E.I and it's an absolute gem of an island with it's greens and reds , the blue of the sea, and wonderful people. Happy Trails
Potato!!! That’s the perfect name for your camper!
Hmmmm....my dad raised potatoes in northern michigan....those were the days I'm sure...I was a baby when they moved away from the rural setting
My old Botany Prof used to tell us it is only when the flora thrives that the fauna can thrive.
Can't be a tater hater! You can have baked taters. You can have mashed taters. You can have scalloped taters. You can have tater cakes. You can have French fried taters. You can have tater chips. You can have tater soup. You can have boiled taters. You can have tater tots. You can have hash brown taters. You can have tater stix.....yes, those wonderful taters. Breakfast taters, lunch taters, annnd dinner taters.🥔😎👍
I think you mean, crisps! As for potatoes, let's just all agree to thank the French! If we'd left it to the Spanish i would be another yam story!
Hello Slim. Your channel is inspirational. My husband and I are saving for a Trillium and hoping to travel across Canada in 2024. Thank you!
Sharing your video with my PEI cousins. I'm nostalgic, thinking of past visits. Great video.
Great video Slim! I live in NS and grow my own potatoes every year. However, they certainly can't compare to PEI potatoes! That was a great trip and you are correct that it is a very touristy island! Covered Bridge are the best potatoes chips!!
Thank you, Mr. Potatohead. I am on my way to Idaho for a family wedding and will be traveling and camping in my Honda Odyssey across the northern tier of states for a month. My route takes me through Blackfoot,, ID and I am looking forward to a baked potato and everything on it!
It's Slim.
@@SlimPotatohead Eating the potato skin doused with butter & or sour cream is the only way to finish off a baked potato.
Prince Edward Island😲
And just casually mentioned "Green gables"! I want to see it, and everything mentioned in the books.
Except from that 🤔, it looked like a cosy trip, and nice tent!
Slim, you'll have to come down to the San Luis Valley of Colorado and the Potato Festival. Big fan of PEI. Looked like a great PEI meal!
Tents are an awesome experience...as are potatoes! 👍😎🇨🇦🥔⛺
Enjoy your potatoes with the potato chips Slim! Thanks for taking us along! My favorite potato chips are "Lays." Did you know chips are a great way to start a camp fire due to the oil in the chips? They do work. :)
You really need to come to the Pa. Farm show for the best baked potato and a shake that has been doing this for generations 😊
Great video. Born in PEI. I go back from time to time. Liked the part at the Potato Museum.
Alberta has become the leading producer of potatoes in Canada in the last few years.
i just hard the song bud the spud .... like a weak ago and herd of spuds on prince Edward island

Love that you visited O'Leary, I live there, actually i lived on the same street as the potato museum. Cheers from P.E.I. ❤

I live vicariously through your videos
Thank you
