    There’s not a single mention of Americans “dyeing potatoes” in this entire article, except for the title and an allusion to a youtube video explaining how to dye potatoes. That’s it. Who comes up with these ridiculous titles? Oh right, robots.

    Potatoes for the Rockefellers, Carnegies, and Morgans, maybe. We have to forage for pinecones and dip them in reddish mud and/or blackish mud if we want anything close to resembling an Easter egg hunt.

    Til people use real eggs on easter. What do they do with them? It’s not like you can put candy in them

      Hard boil them before painting. They still keep in the fridge. Eat them with a bit of salt and pepper.

      We also emptied out the egg shells by poking holes in both ends, then blew out and rinsed the interiors. Afterward, fill with melted chocolate.

        The most experience I have with easter is participating in easter egg hunts. I didn’t know people eat painted eggs
