Late last year, a New Zealand couple revealed that they had grown what is possibly the world's largest potato. Now, in order to claim the title, officials are requesting that the potato undergo DNA testing to confirm its authenticity.
As several media outlets reported in November 2021, Colin and Donna Craig-Brown of Wellington, New Zealand were weeding their garden when they found a large, unusual object just under the soil.
At first, the pair was unsure of what they had found—but after Colin bravely tasted the mass, he realized it was none other than a giant potato.
