Tiny Spuds: edible, or not?

Yeh!...No matter how carefully you clear the ground, there's always one or two!

They always put a smile on my face when I see them- growing from such tiny spuds!
I leave them if I can( depends where they are growing) as they always seem the healthiest plants?..and the last to get blight!

Everyone in my family used to fight to get the marble sized spuds, it was like having the crust off the bread or end slice off a joint of meat. Maybe my family is just odd

I've left a few of them which have magically appeared along the back of the fence and a couple of others which have (through sheer luck) came up in-between onions. If they look like they are going to push other things up or over, they get pulled out.

I've just noticed a few more this morning which will need pulling when they get a little bigger and I can get a hold of them.

That's very interesting - did not know the tiny ones could be bitter.
