I had sweet potatoes on the brain for several days before I finally made the time to stop by the mall. I was disappointed by the bin of small, shriveled sweet potatoes I found there. But I decided to buy a few anyways.
By the time I finally got around to cooking them a few days later, I was really craving sweet potatoes. I just love the taste, the texture, the color...
Wait a second. These potatoes are white. I was a little skeptical, but I cooked them up anyways. And sure enough, they were sweet potatoes. It's a good thing, because I don't think regular potatoes would taste very good with a streusel topping.

When we were in Germany the russet potatoes were much darker in color than here in the USA. I don't think I have ever seen white sweet potatoes though!
I love white sweet potatoes! Granted, I've only ever had them once and I've never had normal sweet potatoes, but aunt Louise made them at Thanksgiving. I was a little disappointed when she didn't make them for Christmas.
Katie - I still haven't figured out the potato varieties here. I wish I could figure out which were the russet potatoes!
Jessica - I can't believe you've never had sweet potatoes! They're so yummy. I couldn't tell a difference in the taste between the orange ones and the white ones, but I like the orange ones better. They're prettier.
