Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
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.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'll eat all of sarameg's share -- except for the icky stuff with marshmallows.
I made a sweet potato soup with apples and onions -- that convinced a sweet potato hater that they can be saved.

Now I wish I had something sweet. Pie is gone and I didn't get any sweet potato leftovers, alas.

I love sweet potatoes just baked, with butter and brown sugar on top. Also love sweet potato pie. I HATE the traditional sweet potato casserole. Too sweet.
I have a question. I always forget, what's the difference between sweet potatoes and yams? Are yams the orange ones and sweet potatoes the yellow ones? Or is it the other way around?

They're all sweet potatoes but for some reason we call the orange-fleshed ones yams. Even though there are actual yams that are different.
My sweet potato casserole is with orange juice and brown sugar. I haven't had the kind with marshmallows, but I don't think I would like it.

Thanks `t, I just googled the same myself. That fits with my childhood recollection. Of course now I'm having a hard time finding a photo of an actual yam. Also I know one of the two has more nutritional value, but I can't recall which one.
