First of all potatoes are versatile they can be boiled, mashed, fried, roasted, turned into soups, casseroles, mcdonalds frytki, probably even cakes and sweets and stuff, like through the uhh starch. Like if you wanted to make vegan cookies you could replace the white thing from eggs with potato starch, for the adhesive. Also potatoes are way more efficient in both a caloric way and a water usage way since they are nutrient-rich and have fiber and vitamins and stuff whereas rice grains are just rice really there is not much to them and potatoes really satiate and are quite filling, carbohydrates or ARYAN carbs as i call them are a great source of energy. Also potatoes can be planeted anywhere, even cool and damp places like ireland and they are really resiliant and stuff whereas rice paddies need to have the monsoon and a lot of water and stuff, also you need entire swamps of rice to feed people but a potato bog can feed a family for a year on a very small plot of land so in short potatoes are officially called ARYAN potatoes and i thank america for inventing them
