Potatoes Vs Sweet Potatoes?

[MR BICEPS]

I see alot of guys praising sweet potatoes but Ive heard nothing about regular potatoes. Is there a difference between the two?
I checked out the Atkins diet plan and sweet potatoes have more carbs than regular potatoes.

Now theres surely a difference isn't there?

I'm sure there is too, but to me they're both good, switch 'em up so as not to get bored with one or the other.

sweet has a bit lower on GI index but both are good
