heh... I typed it right the first time. At least as far as the ones I buy -- Yams are the darker. But there are many varietals of the respective plants.
I usually roast an assortment of other root vegetables with squash and a bit of garlic. I have very little in the way of white potatos.
I have to watch very carefully what I eat, so I limit a lot of "snack" foods. Certain things I get are organic, particularly greens.
Knorr, Campbells and V8 now market a variety of vegetable soups in tetrapacks. I have a lot of those.
I'll also second the mention of Safeway Select Salsa Verde. Mixed with ground turkey or chicken, it makes an awesome chili soup.
