Also would explain why imperial governors tend to be so obese.

I grew up in Idaho, the Potato capital of the USA.
There are MANY more ways to prepare a potato then frying it.

Nope they have a variety of foods from around the galaxy. Grox burgers are the favourite fast food but there is everything you could imagine and more. There is moss, birds, lizards, sea plants, artic plants, desert plants, plenty of tropical plants.

>>14818905
there is no coffee, chocolate, cocoa, or tea, just caffeina to drink, pure caffeine, maybe artificially made, dilluted in water
no sugar, just promethium
no rum, beer, or whisky, just tasteless amasec
and I guess Lo Sticks tastelike ork fart, just to keep the whole grim grim dark dark thing going

>>14818933
Dude there is all of those things. It is just they are not available to the everyday man woman and child

>in the grim darkness of the future, there are no French Fries

>>14818923
Potatoes are the fruit of Terra. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, potato chips, potato bread, potato skins. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's scalloped potatoes, hot potatoes, french fries, potato soup, potato stew, potato salad, potatoes and potatoes, potato burger, potato sandwich. That- that's about it.

>>14818933
Recaf from what I can tell is a Synthetic Coffee substitue, teas still exist but come in largely the herbal variety.
Promethium is gasoline or gasoline substitue and not from what I can tell a sweetner.
amasec is space booze. Fans of the Original Battlestar Galactica might remember Amberosia being a form of booze they had avaible. The cheap stuff is more than likely pure ethelalchole. The more expensive stuff is similar to fine wine. This seems to be a bit of a catch call.
LhO-stick - Tabacco has rather special growing climites and soil needs, much life Coffee, tea, and Chili pepers. This is probably made from a hybrid plant that can survive the wide variety of climate, and soils out in the known galazy.

Recaf is coffee. It can be either synthetic or natural depending on the quality/source.

>>14819018
I was thinking about pulling a Bubba myself.

Oh dear god potatoes.

I can't stand them, I've been on stale diet of potatoes for last 5 weeks, with potatoes during every god damn meal.

I can't even think about potatoes without thinking about projectile vomiting. I feel bloated as fuck already.

>>14818933
>tasteless amasec
Somebody hasn't read the novels. It comes in a variety of types with many of them tasting quite good.
You need to read more novels.

Potato Marines.

>>14818964
Yeah, they call them chips instead.

Any Brit game worth its salt would not call something FRENCH fries.

>>14819143

Pentient crusades: Peelin' potatoes for next couple hundred years for the emperor.

>>14819143
Someone do this. Now.

>>14819143
Sounds like a fallen Chaos Chapter to me.
Would explain all the eyes growing out of them.

>>14819143
POTATO MARINES, MAKE CHIPS FOR THE EMPRAH!

>>14819168

No, those are just potatoes. Since they can't grow hair, they grow potatoes on their heads.

>>14819143
Their bolters fire explosive potatoes.

>>14819143
So I see them as either ALWAYS using flame based weapons like the Sisters to represent cooking.
OR
They never use flame weapons because of the whole potatoes getting cooked.

>>14819143

Tech Heresy to the highest degree.

Hot Potato Launchers? Twin-Liked Potato-Fryers?

Also, power potato mashers.

>Emperor's Spuds
Oh yes, we have a winner right here.

Amasec - Catch-all term for your hard liquor.
Sacra - Catch-all term for wines.

Iho (eye-ho you morons) is described as being slightly narcotic. Kind of a cross between marijuana and tobacco.

Grox - Big-ass violent lizard that has to be lobotomized to keep it from rampaging and killing everyone. Tastes like beef.

The more you know...

What should we name the Chapter Master of the Emperor's Spuds?
I vote Rincewindus.

All their tech priests have an extra arm with a giant spatula attached.

Chain swords are vegetable peelers.
Power swords are giant paring knives.

>>14819231

Unhealthy, near slaneeshi attraction to potatoes is heresy.

I'd call our chaptmaster Rosamunda, if that is too feminine I'd call him Mashius.

>>14819231

Lord Spudicus could also work.

>>14819258
I vote for Mashius.

Although I thought this was going to be a Traitor Chapter anyway?

I once tried to eat a potato.

But then it was alien.

I'm thinking a color scheme like the Dark Angels.

Potato brown for the regular armor and peeled potato cream (tan?) for the termies.

>>14819220

I vote Mr. Potato Head for their spiritual liege.

>>14819272

Like said, potatoes are from the holy terra itself. Potato Marines are tasked to protect these holy potatoes with their lives.

Besides, they don't grow in warp. Potatoes aren't affected by the warp powers, as potatoes do not have needs for pleasures of flesh, passion, fatherly love or lust of blood.

They are potatoes. They are purity incarnate.

if potatoes did exist in the Imperium you know the =][= would just declare them heresy.

Potatoes are easy to produce and could feed billions if an entire agri-world was devoted to them, the =][= wants everyone to starve so they can keep everyone on a tight leash.

no potatoes!

Rincewind approves of this thread.

>>14819304
>they don't grow in warp
Or maybe you don't realize that some of the monsters from the warp were in fact potatoes? Perhaps potatoes have such fantastically scary properties in the warp?

>They are purity incarnate.
Potatoes are in fact pretty dirty and bland when it comes to tubers.

>>14819300
>Potatoheadicus Mistarius

>>14819326

Every soldier that fights for the imperium becomes dirty, hense they shall be washed and rinced before they can serve the emperor once more, like potatoes.

And its obvious to see a warp creature that looks like a potato from a potato. They don't have warp presence, as such they are incorruptible.

Many have tried to posess a potato, only to fail miserably.

WHAT

>Every soldier that fights for the imperium becomes dirty, hense they shall be washed and rinced before they can serve the emperor once more, like potatoes.
You just said that the soldiers get corrupted. Don't work like that mouthbreather.

I've often wondered if it might be a mainstay of the drow diet, as it will grow in reduced light, much like spinach and kale

>>14819357
>/tg/ i am fucking ashamed
Then go hide in a closest. We don't mind.

>>14819372
Drow are too thin to consume potatoes. Potatoes are a fat ass food.

>>14819377

>in a closest
whats a closest?

>>14819382
thats only because those fast food outlets who have a grip on america insist on frying EVERY SINGLE ONE

>>14819382

That could be just not having enough food, period. Would help explain the attitude

Oi, how'z a looted p'tato feel, ya gitz?

>>14819382
>>14819403
Actually, potatoes are extremely high in calories. Frying them increases this to a fair point, but potatoes themselves are not a low fat food.

Potatoes are the secret weapons against the 'Nids.

>>14819539
>>14819539
also that they're very simple starches = rapidly converted to glucose = signal the body to lower metabolism and store any excess

>>14819539

Calories =/= fat.

Potatoes are almost entirely starchy carbohydrate, which is a big source of energy which is why spuds have lots of calories. Until you fry them, though, they have barely any actual fat.

>>14820719
Makeing them a perfect food for the Empire.

The Imperium probably grows these as fast as they can, as much as they can because they are so hardy, and grow in such a wide variety of Climates. From the Volcanic soils of Idaho, to Ireland, to the Marshy soils of Wisconsin, although that funky shaped western state has become the Ireland of America with there shere output of spuds.
