What is Idaho potatoes?
Russet (Idaho) potatoes, the standard high-starch baking potato with thick brown skin and dry, fluffy flesh. Sold by the count per 50 lb carton (e.g. 70s, 90s, 100s), where the number is potatoes per case and lower counts mean bigger tubers.
The workhorse for steakhouse baked potatoes, diner home fries and hash browns, mashed potatoes, and the best frying potato for thick-cut fries and latkes at Jewish delis. High starch fries crisp and bakes light, not waxy.

Why the number moves
NYC produce runs through the high-volume houses that feed Hunts Point and the wider metro — California, Florida, Mexico, and Northeast farms when they're in season. That's why a case rate on idaho potatoes can shift week to week.
It's held pretty steady across the year (up about 28% over the last month). Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Per case or per pound?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-pound rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Spec your count to your plate: 90-count for baked potato entrees, smaller 100s for fries. Store cool and dark (45-55F), never refrigerated, and reject any case with green skin or sprouting eyes.
