Yes it is and hybrid is key here, a real original potato was good food, as was wheat and corn etc. It's a combination of processing and hybreeding for high sugar content that has created this monster so many of us are addicted to. Sugar is mans invention and it is a drug, a powerful stimulant addictive drug, alcohol is sugars highest form. Most everybody is addicted to sugar but few know it or understand it's consequences.
