Strawberry Blonde Potatoes

President's Choice has come out with a new variety of potato - Strawberry Blonde.   I thought that I would give them a go to see what they tasted like.  They were great - just on their own.  I boiled them in the skin as recommended, and we ate them just like that with no butter or toppings.  They are sweet enough that they stand alone.  We actually cannot remember the  time that we last ate simple boiled potatoes.  We really enjoyed the softer texture, which made us wonder if our age is setting in and that we now need/enjoy softer food.  All in all, I would buy them again.  I also noticed that they have another variety called "Petite Merlot".  Has anyone tried those?   Trying them might have to go onto the list of things to try next year!
