"The story of The Potato and Mrs. Kelly points out the extreme versatility of the potato, its history, and the many ways it can be served. It emphasizes the extremely high food content of this vegetable and attempts to correct the false impression we all have about the calories it contains. Used to promote the sale of Sheriff's Instant Mashed Potatoes."
