How in the world does corn have diversity of preparation?
I'm already on Team Potato. No need to explain.

Cornbread. Corn fritters with a cornmeal breading. I mean there are some options.

Anywhere you want it to be, you just can't have any other food source.

I pretty much need some source of fat to fry with.

Yeah but it still tastes like corn. At least with a potato it will take on the flavors of what you can find to cook it with.

If you had corn, you could bait an animal to slaughter for the fat. But you can't have the meat.

I can do the same with salty potatoes. Some animal is bound to stop by and eat. Then, good old fashioned animal fat. Potato is the clear winner.

I would also take potato after long thought. I like the variety of what you can fix with corn, breakfast wise and bread wise.. but potato is just too diverse.
tater soup
mashed taters
scalloped taters
baked tater
tater chips
hash browns
tater cakes
are just a few things off the top of my head.. and they're good for self defense if you're really resourceful and make you a tater gun.

Don't forget potato bread and the fact that potatos have a few medical uses as well.

I could not handle the corn shits for 6 months. Taters is the only option.

Cool factoid of the day:
The only food source that you can eat exclusively and not be malnourished is the sweet potato.

Potato because corn is essentially nutritionless
is that a word?

Corn = sour mash = bourbon... so bourbon. I will take the bourbon.

Potato is the only answer. You'll die if all you ate was corn.
You can tell the educated survivalists from the non-survivalists in this thread. In a catastrophic event, many in this thread would die.
I'm not one of them.

Potato. Corn is much less nutritionally complete.
