What wine goes with tater tots???

blogs.houstonpress.com...

Our wine gurus at Specs suggested the Palacio de Bornos Verdejo 2008, recommending this Spanish white from the Rueda region for its nice fruit and good acidity. "The Spanish have a lot of potatoes in their cuisine. This white wine will cut through the starch of the potatoes." Sounded like a winner to us.
The winner is.....Palacio de Bornos Verdejo 2008

Put a handful of Tater Tot's in oven at 350 degrees for 3 hours. That's right, 3 hours.

Remove from oven and let cool.

Place Tater Tot's in small cloth bag.

Take out camping with you along with slingshot.

Tater Tot's have been known to take out rabbits and squirrels with ease and although there have been reports of downing a small deer with them, nothing has been confirmed as to this story.

Hahahah!! YES! I know what I am making tomorrow

Tribe,I guess I should make another and throw it in the survival forum.
How to survive with tater tots!!

Well,went out camping once years ago and we had tater tots for breakfast instead of hash browns.

It was easier to cook and you could pop them into your mouth.

My friend missed his mouth and one went on to the ground.

After a while I was just relaxing at the camp and noticed this "tot" was moving!

Upon closer examination I saw it was a group of ants attempting to roll it back to their hill!

It was entertaining to watch and I put small obstacles in their way just to make it challenging for them.

Everybody loves tater tots.

I have to admit,I would have slowly counted to five and eaten it anyways.
The 5 second rule always applies.

I prefer them over hash browns but never mashed potatoes,those are the best.
