If you’re a fan of fries, you might be worried about a rumor that the U.S. is facing a potato shortage. Unusually cold and wet weather did damage some potato crops in the northern U.S. and Canada this past fall.

The potatoes used to make those salty snacks are earlier in the year and were out of the ground before the bad weather hit.)
