I never realized the parts were designed for a real potato, and the plastic head only came after they made the parts less sharp.

I remember Wonder Bread used to put prizes in the bags. I had a friend whose father worked for Wonder Bread and he would bring home a bunch of them. One I remember clearly were these white pellets that you threw and they would let off a bang similar to a cap. I don't imagine anyone was ever hurt by these, but the idea of this happening today is laughable. Hey kids, get a free low grade explosive with your bread!!
