what is

 

the difference between Yams and Sweet Potatoes?
Many authorities have opined on this weighty subject. For instance, seehttp://zoebakes.com/2008/11/21/the-sweet-potato-vs-yam-debate-on-nprs-weekend-america/ 
and https://www.webstaurantstore.com/blog/3080/sweet-potato-vs-yam.html  for the technical differences.

But artistically speaking, the answer is clear. Yams have more character!
