which potato variety would hurt the most?

I need to gain weight terribly to be safe for a surgery. Without enough carbs I'm just not putting on weight. Despite my sibo I still prefer to eat whole foods than processed and I need potassium. I know this is probably a case of you'll only know once you try but which do you think would cause a worse reaction?

waxy potato - slow digesting, more time to ferment but low starch

floury potato - quick digesting but high starch

sweet potato is out for sure, the combination of fructose plus starch hurts me badly.

how can I visually tell the difference between Yukon golds and regular gold/yellow potatoes?

At Whole Foods and other grocery stores near me they sell what they call yellow or gold potatoes. I have never seen any labeled Yukon gold. From what I have read Yukon Gold is a mix of russet and gold/yellow potato in texture and taste (floury and a bit waxy). I would like to find these potatoes. I think the small ones I have bought are just plain gold or yellow as they were extremely waxy, more so than a red potato. Now I see Whole Foods has some out that are much bigger and I'm wondering if they could Yukon golds. Visually how can you tell the difference? Will they be labeled "Yukon gold" or do stores use the label gold or yellow for them as well?

utopi hen eggs

Does anybody know the full ingredients of what they feed their hens? It says they are corn soy free, but the chickens must eat something for fats and when I try to ask on their website it keeps saying it thinks I am spam and won't send the message through.

how to make extra thick egg yolks more edible

I have a subscription to farm fresh eggs however some batches of the eggs have yolks so thick they are a bit hard to digest, very sticky and kind of hard to cook. Im wondering if they were possibly frozen. Is there any way to cook/fix the yolk so it has a less dense texture?

I can digest egg with my dinner but not by itself.

This was not always the case (until my gut got really bad from adhesions due to surgery) but I get sick when I eat an egg (I'm only talking about one) by itself in the morning. However if I eat it with my dinner (salmon and bison and a big salad and olive oil...yes I know olive oil is not carnivore) I don't get nearly as much of a sick feeling. I am just curious as to why this could be if anybody has any theories or has experienced the same type of thing. I would say it could be lack of fat for energy with the egg but I was eating a good bit of fat with it. However I tried not eating as much to see if that helped and it definitely did not.
