potatoes and eggs can be eaten together. Potatoes and eggs are the most commonly used raw materials for salad, so it is not true that eating potatoes and eggs together will cause poisoning. The reason why there is a rumor that "eggs and potatoes will be poisoned when eaten together" is because some people cook sprouted potatoes and eggs together, which leads to food poisoning. If cooked normally, potatoes and eggs will not be poisoned when eaten together.

After the potatoes germinate, the solanine content increases sharply. After eating the sprouted potatoes, people will have a poisoning reaction within 1 minutes to several hours after eating. Causes itching and burning sensation in throat, burning sensation or pain in upper abdomen, severe vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, dyspnea and other symptoms. In severe cases, it will lead to death due to heart failure and respiratory center paralysis.

Therefore, it's not that potatoes and eggs can't be eaten together, but don't eat sprouted potatoes. In the case of sprouting potatoes, if only one or two buds are sprouted, the buds can be peeled off together with the green parts before cooking; If the germination is serious, you need to throw away the potatoes and don't eat them any more.
