Considering the number of potatoes and their size I have a few questions below: (Answers are in red) What temperature do you suggest I use to cook them?

I have forgotten which episode and cannot find it on his website but Dr. Oz said not to eat leftover baked potatoes and gave the reason(s). Do you have any idea what he was talking about? I usually eat one-half of a baked potato one night and the other half the next night.

I took the potatoes out to cool last evening and left water in pot overnight, graniteware. When pouring water out this morning it was a vivid green color!? Typically of course I drain the water and cool in pan so I’m clueless if time overnight “greened” the water or exactly what happened? Please help!

Our company is hosting a luncheon for about 80 volunteers. We want to do a baked potato bar and serve hot potatoes and toppings. The problem is we do not have an oven at work so we will need to bake the potatoes this night before the event. I would like your suggestions on how many potatoes we each should take home to bake (12? 20? How many can fit in a standard oven?), how long that baking time should be for medium-sized potatoes, and how to keep them warm until lunch? Can potatoes be baked the night before and reheated in the morning or do they need to be baked fresh and kept warm?

I was wondering how to keep fried potatoes from getting soggy. My church has a potluck on Wednesdays, and now and then, we have breakfast for dinner. Fried potatoes are always on the sign-up sheet, but no one knows how to fry them at home and transport them without the potatoes getting greasy and soggy.
