Potatoes get plenty of recognition and always have.
Bar snack? Loaded potato skins
Apparently potatoes are a staple food in South America, ao OP isn't alone in this.
They’re a staple food in Germany, too
So much so that our immigrant population refers to Germans as "Kartoffeln" (potatoes)
Tbh, I hear that almost exclusively from native Germans, though that might be because I had an Irish sounding maiden name and people figured I’d be insulted by potato jokes. Weirdly, I don’t hear much teasing of Germans from immigrants. I do it, like the other day I left work in socks and crocs and pointed it out as a final step of my Eindeutschung to my coworkers, so not really cutting, but I still don’t hear even light teasing much from others. The most I see is loaded eye contact whenever something is really German. Things like unbelievable bureaucracy, or very precise engineering, or an absolutely terrifying thing that’s for some reason aimed at children.

Quick photo to ask for help with a technical issue? Potato cam!
Stretched too thin? Potato starch
Bored? Potato Head
Horny? Believe it or not, potato head
Why is mash a holiday food? They're just mechanically pre-digested boiled potatoes.

A nice, cold, peeled potato with salt and pepper on it is a suprisingly refreshing snack

The most versitle food deserves recognition. I love potatoes so much. I had wonderful potatoes at breakfast over the weekend. And the best mashed potatoes (of my entire life) a few weekends ago. I'm pretty sure that other than eggs, potatoes are the most variable food I eat.
YOUR MOM IS A POTATO FOR EVERY OCCASION
