    A potato unhealthy? Absolutely not. On the contrary, potatoes are overflowing with vitamins and nutritional values and contain no fat. For comparison: per 100 gr. a cooked potato contains only 75 kcal. By contrast cooked white rice counts already 147 kcal in the same 100 gr. Moreover, a potato is a treasury of fibres and vitamins, contrary to cooked rice of pasta.
