What Is This Potato Thingo - Id Help Needed

Featured Replies

I have enclosed an image I found, I think it is what I am trying to ID but now 100% sure.

I found a bunch of them on the side of the road (in a stall, about 10 stalls 50m apart actually) near Korat recently. They cost about 30b- 50b for a bunch of about 10 of them I think.

You could peel them with your fingers, and inside the flesh was crunchy, a bit like a apple potato which you could eat raw. It was a bland taste, slightly sweet if anything. They grow in the ground, that I am 100% sure of.

Pachyrhizus erosus, commonly known as Jícama, native to Mexico... maybe...

Maan geyo. มันแกว No taste and a little sweet. I can't imagine why anyone buys or eats these in rice country.

Thanks, I can upload an image I took when buy it, but when I click on My Media in the options above, I can't find files. How do you upload images directly, and not host them else where? blink.png
