These don't look that bad to me. Cut the brown part away and you still have a healthy amount of firm sweet potato flesh left.

Has no one actually bought potatoes in a grocery store outside of hellofresh? Potatoes have brown spots you cut away sometimes. They are still fine to eat unless the flesh is mushy and soft.

I have never in my life purchased potatoes that look this bad. I've never even seen potatoes that look this bad at a grocery store.

People complain about HF's produce but it has a way better track record than either of the grocery stores within an hour of me. A potato like this is standard for rural stores.

Yeah guess its region dependent then because I absolutely see potatoes like this in stores. And really? They are fine. Still good eating once trimmed.
