Answer #1

Its like a potato sun bun, instead of getting red like we do, it gets green. You’ll be perfectly fine.

Answer #2

The potato had solanine in it…it happens when the potato is exposed to too much light.

You’re going to be just fine - solanine is only toxic in large amounts, but now that you know, next time you can cut away the green part.
