The sweet potato is North Carolina’s state vegetable and we harvest a LOT of them.  North Carolina grows nearly 60% of all United States sweet potatoes, more than any other state.  By the way, sweet potatoes are a great source of Vitamins A & C, beta carotene, fiber and potassium.

Interesting... Is that actually a real sign, that still stands today, at the Eastern terminus of I-40?

It's a real sign, but keeps getting stolen.  This is the other end.

Got it. I've driven I-40 from the other end at least once, but didn't notice that at the time.
