Food Resolution A Hot Potato In Idaho

from National Public Radio

Idaho's state legislature was asked to support locally-grown food. The Idaho Potato Commission opposed the resolution. The head of the commission thinks everybody in the state should buy Idaho potatoes but they want people in every other state to buy them too. The resolution passed with a slight change. The word "Idaho" has replaced the word "local."
