My recipe says to dice them, but my hand is getting sore drawing all the dots.

5 cubed as in 5 to the power of 3

The response is clever because to reverse it you say you're looking for the cube root of 125

Interestingly, the page says regular potatoes are stem tubers, differentiating them from and acknowledging the existence of root tubers, which includes sweet potatoes.

Are you a fruit man or a root man?

Yeah but normally root alone refers to the square root, so you'd still end up with just over 11 potatoes

Which is a lot more reasonable. It's a big soup.

This is where precise language is important! The recipe should have specified 5 cubic potatoes, to distinguish them from the 1-dimensional kind

The profile discrepency makes this even funnier.

Real "streets vs sheets" energy here.

Potatoes are not vegetables, they are tubers; the leafy green matter is the vegetable.

A vegetable is any part of a plant that you can eat. So fruits are indeed vegetables

125 potatoes seems on target for military purposes.
