<p id=”par-2_35″>Parton has traveled all over the world and tried many different cuisines and recipes. There’s one food she comes back to time and time again, though. She admitted she eats potatoes practically every single day.</p>
<p id=”par-3_40″>“I have to have something with potatoes,” Parton told <a href=”http://today.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>TODAY.com</a>. “I mean, I’m just one of those people that I have to either have a baked potato, some mashed potatoes, or some french fries, or something to do with potatoes.”</p>

<p id=”par-4_31″>She admitted that she doesn’t have much of a sweet tooth, and would rather opt for salty, starchy foods. She even relies on potatoes to get her <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/dolly-parton-potato-chips-recording-album.html/”>through long studio sessions</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-5_28″>“If I’m recording, I just eat potato chips,” she told <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.insider.com/dolly-parton-writing-two-biggest-songs-2022-4″ rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Insider</a>. “Because the salt is good for my vocal cords. I can sing all day just doing that.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_40″>While potatoes are a major staple in her diet, she is better at cooking chicken and dumplings. Parton said she cooks them every time <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/dolly-parton-revealed-movie-absolute-joy-work.html/”>she’s on a movie set</a>. People love them, but she refuses to give out the recipe.</p>
