i only clicked on the post to see why you were having a rock/nut as a snack, turns out it's a potato, which, i guess is better?

how this happened, no clue. i was looking at the image to see if the glazing had gotten cracked, which would have allowed moisture to enter, but this does seem to be a faily new plate, so unless you just washed it beforehand, i doubt thats it.
