WELL WHO EVER HEARD OF PUTTING TATERS IN THE OVEN?? You make them in the microwave. I said and how were they ever made before the microwave came?? We still chuckle over this one.. so funny..
There really is nothing like a potato baked in a 400 degree oven! When they are done there is no need for a potato bag to keep them warm. They will stay HOT for a long time. Things warmed or cooked in the microwave retain their heat for a much shorter time.
