Zusammenfassung:	Potato products are prepared by a process including the step of providing a substituted benzoic acid growth regulating compound to the potato tubers. Preferred compounds include acetylsalicylic acid, 5-bromosalicylic acid, 5-chlorosalicylic acid, 5-hydroxysalicylic acid, and 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid. When provided in an effective dose level, the growth regulating compounds reduce the sugar content of potato tubers and reduce sprouting of stored potato tubers. Fried potato products produced from the treated potato tubers, such as french fries and potato chips, are less subject to discoloration during frying than are products produced from untreated potato tubers.
