There are two types of Vivaldi potatoes, regular and baking. Which one did you try?

It's very hard to know. Perhaps try in December. It's hit or miss really.

What does it hurt to try? If posters say it's good and it doesn't have good reviews what do you lose to try 5 pounds? Vs not trying and not finding a potato you like for kugel.
