Considering who made this topic, are you just advocating for softer potatoes, or are you arguing that all potato salad should be exclusively made from mashed potatoes?

Actually, I don't eat potato salad at all because I loathe mayo with the heat of a thousand fiery suns, and avoid the hell out of any food made using it.

Consider trying it with Miracle Whip in place of the mayonnaise. The texture is different and it has a slight sweetness that plays well with the dill pickle in the potato salad. It doesn't taste like Miracle Whip once you have all of the other ingredients. So even if you aren't a fan of the stuff you might still enjoy potato salad made with it.

Diced dill pickle is a fairly common ingredient in potato salad.

Yeah I thought about that after I posted lol. Pickled onions give a fancier touch I guess. Depending on how they were done they elevate the flavour and colour of the dish. But actual pickles (ie cucumber)? No. I'm not a cucumber fan no matter its form and don't like it on anything. Least not potatoes. Eggs are another controversial one in potato salad. Like with pickled onions it makes it richer but some people just like it plain. I like mine with boiled eggs but it's not a big deal.

You'd be surprised how good cold sweet potato pie tastes. I actually prefer it now over having it warm. Potato salad can go either way.

Well, I doubt that would do it for me...but I haven't tried so who knows?

Potato salad ranges from "bleh" to "OK" for me. I'm usually disappointed to see it at the BBQ potluck.

To be fair, sweet potato pie isn't really potato. Sweet potatoes (aka yams) are technically different than potatoes (same order, but different species, genus, and family - potatoes are actually more closely related to tomatoes than they are yams).

Sweet potatoes aren't yams lol. We use actual yams here (the really huge ones) but I don't think they're that well known outside Africa and Caribbean. Maybe UK since they have large population from Caribbean and Nigeria.

Edit: I just checked to make sure and sweet potatoes are part of the morning glory family. They have nothing to do with either regular potatoes or yams and are often mixed up for either depending where in the world you are. North Americans call them yams but they're not. Actual yams are much starchier.

Yes it is. The first recipes on google even have it with pickles or relish.

Yes they are.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yam

You're thinking of the first one. I'm deliberately referencing the second one.

Also:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_potato

It's explained in the very first paragraph.

Conversely:

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/yam#Etymology_1

You're using definition #1-2, I was referencing definition #3.

Like it or not, this has been a thing for longer than most people on PotD have been alive.

Dude, I checked the same source you did. Sweet potatoes are not actually yams they are just called that commonly. What's the issue here. We should be in agreement.

"The sweet potato, especially the orange variety, is often called a "yam" in parts of North America, but it is entirely unrelated to true yams."

Greek Yogurt is the best substitute for mayo. Having said that, potato salad usually isn't good.
