The BC gathered together on Wednesday, Nov. 16, for a potato bake-off in D106. Contestants created a dish to compete in one of the three categories: Best Tasting, Best Mark Watney Potatoes and Most Surprising.

Any potato dish was accepted for Best Tasting. For the Mark Watney category, contestants were required to present dishes with only five ingredients including potatoes, that used common household kitchen staples. Contestants who competed in the Most Surprising category offered dishes that used potatoes in a nonconventional way. For example, one contestant brought cinnamon rolls made with potatoes.
