Idaho potato

The Idaho is considered by many to be the best variety of America's most popular POTATO for baking, the russet. Though some russets grown elsewhere are commonly called Idaho POTATOes, many Idaho government officials are pushing to make the name exclusive to spuds grown in local soil. See also POTATO.
