You Say “Potato”: How a Man’s Plan to Make Salad went Viral

July 9, 2014 | M. Elwood | Comments (1)

Here I am just back from vacation and looking for blog inspiration when I noticed people on the Internet were talking a lot about a man and his potato salad. Zack "Danger" Brown, the co-owner of a software company, began a Kickstarter campaign with the hope of raising $10 so he could make potato salad. In less than a week, he had $40,000.

If you would also like to make potato salad, Toronto Public Library has books to help. You will have to find your own funding, though.

  1. Only 65? I would have pegged the number of “downright delicious recipes” at over 80 personally!
    Fun post 🙂
