I'm more shocked by how many people don't peel them, just boil or fry them with their skin.

It's not a proper potato wedge if it doesn't have the skin, you're making French fries, and French people are disgusting.

potato wedge

Sounds like some kind of Burgerland fast food. How about some traditional fried potatoes instead?

I used to always cook potatoes with their skin, until one day I ate green potatoes with the skin and got mild solanine poisoning. My body has reacted very badly to it ever since.

The taste and texture are completely different if you boil potatoes with the skin and peel them after. I prefer it over cooking them peeled in 9 cases out of 10 but they have to be good quality potatoes.

I don't know why. Skin-on potato salad is a normal thing and adds a nice texture to the dish.
Also I'm a lazy cunt and I hate peeling potatoes.

[SIGSEGV]

Just in case a filthy Irish "person" touched them before I did.

Because like the other veg and shit grown, there be chemicals on the vegetables that turn the autists into troons.

But seriously, sometimes when the potatoes are rinsed at the farm they don't get all the crap off (figuratively and literally).

I kind of like peeling taters, feels meditative.
