That's why you store potatoes in a dark place, light turns them green and they want to grow.

Potatoes, like many other agricultural crops, are of the nightshade family.
This is why you don't eat them if they're green. The 'living' green part means they have very high concentrations of solanine.

Just drink it with milk.

There are cows in the village where you found the rotten potato.

Just right click on the cow holding a bucket to collect milk

You should know better.

As if Minecraft hadn't already taught us.

Also, Solanine is very similar to the name of the family of of the Potato, Solanaceae (I don't know if the Compound or the Family was Named first😅)

It is the same family where the Deadly Nightshade is btw

Also it's in the nightshade family like jimson weed, datura, tomatoes and eggplant are also in the deadly nightshade family

"Alkaloids like solanine have been shown to start decomposing and degrading at approximately 170 °C (338 °F), and deep-frying potatoes at 210 °C (410 °F) for 10 minutes causes a loss of ~40% of the solanine."

I've had potatoes that were partially green, had no issues deep frying them for potato chips. Whole green? That sounds like they were unripe. Mine were sitting around for months.

That’s not entirely accurate. The green is from chlorophyll where the potato was exposed to sunlight. Solanine isn’t green. However, the chlorophyll is an indicator that solanine is present, as the potato creates solanine to protect its exposed tuber from pests.

Regular cooking doesn’t destroy solanine. Boiling temperatures are not high enough. Frying does break it down, though, so green potato chips and other fried potatoes are safe. It’s also why fried green tomatoes (which also contain solanine) are safe to eat.
