Can Sweet Potatoes Go Bad
Yes, sweet potatoes can go bad over time.
Here are signs of spoilage:
- Soft or Mushy Texture: If they feel too soft or have sunken spots, they’re likely spoiled.
- Sprouting: Small sprouts are safe if removed, but excessive sprouting indicates they’re past their prime.
- Wrinkled or Shriveled Skin: This suggests dehydration and loss of freshness.
- Dark Spots or Mold: Black spots, mold, or a foul smell mean they should be discarded.
- Off Smell: A sour or rotten odor is a clear sign they are no longer good to eat.
To extend freshness, store sweet potatoes in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated place, avoiding the fridge.
