Jan 25, 2017King Rustic potatoes return to Walmart
A new variety of russet potato, King Rustics, is back in Walmart stores. The King Rustics from MountainKing are available through February.
Harvested from high atop the Colorado Rocky Mountains, the King Rustics from MountainKing may look like a traditional russet; however, their lighter, tan skin and golden flesh creates a smoother, moister and richer taste when compared to traditional russets, according to MountainKing.
The King Rustics are packed with vitamins, minerals and fibers, particularly in their peels, as well as antioxidants. One serving of potatoes provides 45 percent of the recommended Daily Value of vitamin C, according to MountainKing.
The King Rustics, like all MountainKing varieties, are naturally fat free, cholesterol free and contain no sodium, according to the company. Plus, they are low in calories and fiber-rich, providing between 5 and 16 grams of fiber per one-cup serving.
