    I assumed they meant 'baked potato' because 'baked potato' is what they said.

      Baked potatoes are what you get from a food truck.

      Are people meaning roast potatoes?

      Both of those look delicious.

      Person in OP is probably from the US. Many restaurants when you order a steak, you also get a potato that’s been in the oven and cut into half way, with a bit of butter or sour cream placed inside of its open potato slit.

          Is there a country where potatoes are not eaten?

          It's essentially an untapped vessel for world peace, if you think about it.

            Same with Denmark and afaik the rest of Scandinavia.

            Set in their ways old (70+) Danish people tend to refuse to eat anything for dinner that doesn't involve potatoes with a thick gravy and some kind of meat, preferably pork 😄

                          Ok. That is what we'd call a Baked or Jacket Potato.

                          However, over here, jacket potatoes are more of a "stack it high with toppings" food on-the-go thing. We love them, but don't see them as fancy.

                              I feel like we could have done better than 'baked potato' for a fancy dinner. Come on.

                                  When I visited danish relatives they often made flæskesteg (a kind of roast pork, originally a christmas dish) and you can also get flæskesteg burgers and so on. That's what I think of when someone says danish pork.

                                    baked potato is just a solid lunch choice

                                    Unpopular opinion: not even that, really. The baked potato is by far the most overrated potato.

                                    It's not very good by the standards of food in general. Which of course makes it quite bad by the lofty standards of potatoes.

                                    I'm curious, what toppings are you using?

                                    I unironically rate a baked potato mid-to-high tier for potato. You've gotta make sure you cook it so the inside is fluffy and the skin starts to get crispy, then I always add a bit of butter, salt & pepper before the toppings
