Interesting, I’ll definitely keep that in mind.

Potato ice cream..? Never have I heard of such a thing.

I used to be a nanny for a Filipino family. Go to an Asian or Islander market, and look for "corn" ice cream. There are little chunks of corn and rice in it. OMG it sounds weird, but is so good. Thank me later.
Also, a popular middle eastern/ Indian ice cream is "Kulfi". I think it's pistacio/ cardamom. That is quite a delicious one too!

@Forest Cat , sweet potato is a North American root vegetable. It is sweet. If you have ever eaten pumpkin pie, it tastes like that. On holidays, many people bake sweet potatoes with butter, brown sugar, marshmallows, and sometimes peaches too. It is an American Tradition.

I thnk this purple yam is probably from Asia. People of African descent, when transported to the Americas, recognized the sweet potato as a similar crop to their native foods. They brought with them their rich food traditions, and Sweet Potato casserole and Sweet Potato pie was born.
