Kennebec potato question

10 years ago

The garden center I've been buying Kennebec potatoes from for years has gone out of business. So I found a new local place to buy them from. However, when I went to purchase, they asked me if I wanted Blue Goose or Canadian. I am embarrassed to say I don't know the difference! I always just bought Kennebec, plain and simple. Can someone tell me the difference in the two? I asked the guy at the store and he said it depended on what you like. Needless to say I'm missing my old store!

location; Blue goose is a Maine grown brand. Canadien are grown in Canada usually Nova scotia. Still Kennebecs
