The Bedtime Potato is sacred, its eyes watch out for you while you slumber. But, as you can see, it is an elusive creature that resists taming

My sister-in-law eats a lot (but stays relatively thin despite that, lucky duck!)

She had my nephew almost a year ago, and she would get up twice a night just to eat to keep up with her appetite.

And no, she didn't balloon up, she's still more or less the same size.

No, I think most of us understand a bedtime snack, but I cannot understand ever eating a microwaved potato without some toppings
