Potatoes will often go green when they're not stored properly and they're exposed to light. This is due to formation of chlorophyll (which is found in all green plants), however the green colour is a useful. "Green potatoes have an alkaloid (solanine) designed to protect the potato from insects," Margaret Donohue, Ph. D., a medical psychologist who also grows potatoes, told SheKnows.
