Doug the Potato May Be Certified as the ‘World’s Largest’

Doug is perhaps the world’s biggest potato, or at least Colin and Donna Craig-Brown hope to find out. The New Zealand couple said they were simply weeding the garden when they found Doug. The current Guinness record holder for the largest potato is an 11-pound spud from England, while Doug weighs in at 17.4 pounds. The Craig-Browns are waiting to hear if Doug has officially won the title, and while they wait, Doug is chilling in the freezer.
