The Versatile Purple Sweet Potato

[pink_x_dahlia]

I've been to Japan the past two years.  When in Japan eat their awesome food!  One thing local to Kamakura (the giant Buddha is there) is the sweet potato ice cream.  I get this every time I go.  Last trip I ventured to try a fried sweet potato.  One thing you should know, in Japan sweet potatoes are purple.  They're pretty awesome tasting too.

Well, this might be out there but it tastes like sweet potatoes...just not as starchy.

I don't think I have ever had sweet potatoes so I am trying to think of what it might be comparable to.

Really? You've never had sweet potatoes? Gosh, I don't know what to compare them too.
