Doug (tuber)
Doug, also known as Dug, is a tuber in the Cucurbitaceae family that was grown by Colin and Donna Craig-Brown near Hamilton in New Zealand. Weighing roughly 7.9 kg, it was thought to be the largest potato on record for a period after its discovery, topping the 5 kg record holder at the time. However, genetic testing revealed that Doug is not, in fact, a potato. Background On 30 August 2021, while the Craig-Browns were weeding their garden near Hamilton, Colin's hoe struck what he initially thought was a fungal growth or a sweet potato beneath the surface; he discarded these ideas after realising the object's size. The couple dug around the object. Colin extracted it with a garden fork, scratched its skin, tasted it, and decided that it was a potato. The couple weighed it and named it Doug, after the word ''dug''. Doug grew in popularity locally and on Facebook, where the couple occasionally posted photographs of it. At the suggestion of friends, the Craig-Browns submitted an ap ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
