As with most raw food, eating toxipotatoes directly results in a {{--|7}} ''Ate raw food'' [[mood]] penalty. This mood penalty is negated if the pawn has the [[ascetic]] trait or the [[Genes#Robust digestion|robust digestion]] gene. | As with most raw food, eating toxipotatoes directly results in a {{--|7}} ''Ate raw food'' [[mood]] penalty.

− | Toxipotato plants ({{Q|Toxipotato plant|Harvest_Yield_Per_Day_(100)}} base yield/day) are strictly inferior in yield to both [[potato plant]]s ({{Q|Potato plant|Harvest_Yield_Per_Day_(100)}} yield/day) and [[rice plant]]s ({{Q|Rice plant|Harvest_Yield_Per_Day_(100)}} yield/day) in regular soil.

While +{{%|-1+{{Q|Toxipotato plant|Harvest Yield Per Work}}/{{Q|Rice plant|Harvest Yield Per Work}} round 4}} better in yield/work than rice, toxipotatoes take {{%|{{Q|Toxipotato plant|Real Grow Days}} / {{Q|Rice plant|Real Grow Days}}round 3}} the time per plant to grow, so are a less reliable crop. If work ''is'' a concern, then regular potatoes (+{{%|-1+{{Q|Potato plant|Harvest Yield Per Work}}/{{Q|Toxipotato plant|Harvest Yield Per Work}} round 4}}) or [[corn plant|corn]] (+{{%|-1+{{Q|Corn plant|Harvest Yield Per Work}}/{{Q|Toxipotato plant|Harvest Yield Per Work}} round 4}}) are much better options for yield. |
Toxipotatoes can be grown on polluted soil, but their abysmal yield in all aspects means that it would take a heavily polluted map, where little clean soil is nearby, to make it feasible. Even then, you could clear out a field to grow more traditional plants in. Cleaning can take a while, so toxipotatoes can be used in the earlier stages of an extremely polluted colony. | Toxipotatoes can be grown on polluted soil, but their abysmal yield in all aspects means that it would take a heavily polluted map, where little clean soil is nearby, to make it feasible.

− | The extra | + | The extra food poisoning chance is negligible, as raw food should always be cooked anyways. |
− | Toxipotatoes have lower market value ( | + | Toxipotatoes have lower market value (0.75) than other raw food like rice, corn, potatoes (1.10) or meat (2.00). They also last for 60 days without refrigeration. This makes toxipotatoes an attractive option when buying raw food from traders. |
