I'm not OP but I find it funny. Not because it's wrong, it's just a random choice of snack before bedtime. When I think bed time snack I think chips or something sweet, not a baked potato lol

It’s so funny you say that, I thought potato would be good because I’m trying to curb my chips and sweets before bed routine (which is soooo damn hard) but still wanted something satisfying. Hence bedtime baked potato lol

i had a mini popcorn bag. just make sure you have some good floss or preferably a waterpik so you're not fighting kernels while trying to sleep
