Cedric Porter, a potato market expert, said the rise in spud prices had been "dramatic".

Cantwell is right to defend the spud against this line of attack.

As for “Chicken Shop Date,” the online series first began with Dimoldenberg interviewing grime artists over greasy chicken and deep fried spuds before doing the same with Hollywood celebrities.

But the case, like so many others, fell by the flesh of the spud.

Baked, boiled, roasted or chipped, the humble spud is a dinner staple.
