In South Boise, Idaho, you can now book a stay in a giant potato!
This is a six tonne, 28-foot long, 12-foot wide, and 11.5-foot tall potato made of steel, plaster and concrete, originally created by the Idaho Potato Commission to promote the best vegetable of them all. The fake potato toured the state for six years on the back of a truck. When the tour was done, the Idaho Potato Commission were at a bit of a loss when it came to what to do with their giant potato baby, until a tiny house developer, Kristie Wolfe, approached them.Kristie suggested turning the potato into a rental home. The Idaho Potato Commission agreed and gave her free rein to do whatever she fancied with it.
And the rest is history! Check out the interior of the rental potato after the jump! It rents for $200 a night!

i cannot think of a better way to spend my hard-earned vacation than in a windowless concrete structure out in the middle of nowhere.
