Westside PUFAs said:“Two pounds of well-cooked mashed potato has the protein value similar to a liter of milk, about 33 grams of protein. A person would be able to live for a long time on two or three liters of either milk or 4-6 pounds of potatoes per day. The milk drinker would eventually need to supplement iron, the potato eaters would need to supplement vitamin A, possibly B12, but both of them are nearly perfect foods.” - Ray Peat

Such_Saturation said:But, turnips are 4% carbohydrates. Hardly bread or pasta.
Westside PUFAs said:Are you suggesting Peat is anti-starch?

His response is somewhere here on the forum.
He said something like
that seldom eats them--
just had a few small ones because he likes the taste.
We had a thread exploring turnips.
Here is a sampling of what we turned up: :)
