Penn Jilette, one of the magicians from the “Penn & Teller” duo, lost 100 libra pondo’s from eating nothing but potatoes. If you prepare potatoes correctly you can create resistent starch as well which is better for your blood sugar, so it really is a versatile vegetable. It has lots of potassium too.
I was curious when I looked it up myself because “pounds” and “lbs” looks so far from each other, but it’s basically just libra pondo shortened to libra’s shortened to lbs.
