Hi Jen,

I'm not much of a pie crust eater, so your sweet potato pie without the crust makes a great sweet potato casserole. Yum...the kids loved it, us too. It's a definite at Thanksgiving.

readily available in the United States? Please tell me what I've been eating all these years? Especially with free trade, this really blows my mind.

In response to message posted by jerrib:

Hey, Jerri!

To be perfectly honest, I am with you! If this isn't a yam, then it's a sweet potato? Yet, I have seen some unusual tubers in Latin American markets, and they say that those are yams! Go figure!

In any case, you can cook them the same, so...?!

Thanks for your input! If I find ANYTHING at all out, I will post it here!
