Small Bites

Your taste buds can help determine what kinds of potatoes New York farmers will grow, thanks to a sample-and-rate quiz being offered at two farmers markets in the coming week. (Yes, you’ll have to don a blindfold, just like for the Pepsi challenge all those years ago.) The new varieties being tested are Chieftan, Reba, Eva and Adirondack Blue. You can sample them at from 10 a.m. to noon Sunday at the Rye Farmers Market (Theodore Fremd Avenue off Purchase Street) and 10 a.m. to noon Sept. 30 at the Ossining Market at Main and Spring streets.
