Potatoes

Are they good or bad for you? WW has the same number of points for sweet as for white. Sweet are supposed to be much better for you, as in not as high glycemic index and more nutrients. Of course fried potatoes add much fat that is not good. At school they serve prepared tater tots and various warmed up potatoes that have been fried then frozen. They can't be good for you. Also their mashed potatoes are instant from a box. I think a good potato is very satisfying. I especially like the sweet ones. I'm not sure why they have the same points as white. Something to ask at meetings, I guess. Any thoughts about potatoes? Are they good or bad?
