What Jesse said. I don't like the texture or the sweet+ that texture.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, the texture is pretty hard to avoid. But the sugar can be controlled. I don't remember the texture of American sweet potato pudding. Is it dense or fluffy?

Potato-y texture should not be sweet. Ever.

Well, sweet potatoes and regular potatoes have different textures. Also, the inherent sweetness of the sweet potato does lend itself to playing with sweetness, like squash. Sweet potato pie, always excellent- I like it better than pumpkin. I don't like the marshmallow action, but maple and molasses plays well with sweet potato.
I guess I just consider sweet potato more of a peer of squash, despite the name.
(I just made an awesome squash puree dish with maple syrup last night.)

Why can't I find any vaseline in this house?!! Somewhere, there are a tub and a tube and I have no idea where.

The sweet potato puddings I've had I don't think as having had Irish potato textures.
I don't think I've ever had squash.

I make a butternut squash souffle thingy that i love, squash whipped up with evaporated milk, egg, vanilla, and some sugar. good times.
Then I also make a soup with just squash, cream and nutmeg.
