Spots on potatoes

I have grown potatoes in a sack and just harvested them. They are fairly small and have brown scabby marks. Are they safe to eat?

    Yes they’re fine. I expect it’ll be a bit of scab due to the recent dry conditions.

    Are they like mine were?  Hope yours are as tasty as these 😋

  • Thank you, mine look like yours. I was worried they might be blighted.

    Nothing to worry about. They’ll rub off with the skins. Enjoy 🍽
